NYU Crypto & Sec Group

Here in the Crypto and Security Group at NYU Courant, we research all aspects of cryptography and security, from fundamental theory, definitions and security proofs, to novel cryptographic applications and protocol design.
For a sense of what we're working on, the latest papers posted by researchers in our group to eprint are listed below. Also check out the full lists of papers authored by our group, or check out the individual researchers below.
