Cryptology and Computing Research

    Recent developments in building a practical quantum computer have warranted a need for transitioning to quantum resilient cryptosystems. Ubiquitous use of machine learning techniques in various fields has necessitated research and development of tools for secure Machine Learning. In light of this, Cryptology and Computing Research at SETS has defined its themes of investigation as follows:

  • Post Quantum Cryptography
  • Cryptanalysis including (Theoretical) Quantum Cryptanalysis
  • Secure Machine Learning
  • Ransomware Analysis

    Current Activities

    Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is the study of design and use of new schemes, that will run on classical machines, but will be resilient to quantum attacks. Study and implementation of post quantum signature schemes and Key Encapsulation Mechanisms (KEM) is being carried out at SETS as these implementations form the software background for future quantum resilient PKI. SETS is also involved in performing classical as well as theoretical quantum cryptanalysis of hard problems outlining post quantum algorithms like computational supersingular isogeny.


    Ransomware infection can adversely affect the productivity of an organization and can cause loss of reputation. Modern ransomwares use cryptographic algorithms like TEA, AES, Diffie-Hellman Key Agreement for making recovery of data on an infected system impossible. File-less ransomwares make their detection and hence prevention all the more difficult. Ransomware detection through binary analysis is an active area of research pursued currently at SETS


    SETS is also focusing on the theme, “Cyber Security for Artificial Intelligence”. Privacy Preservation during the Machine Learning process is being studied. Differential Privacy and suitable crypto primitives are being investigated for their relevance. The current focus is on differentially private clustering and regression analysis.


    Research Collaborations

    SETS is collaborating with Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore in the domain of Post Quantum Cryptography. SETS has initiated new project proposals with other government and academic institutions for possible funding.
