Hi, I'm Scott Griffy. -- Introduction -- I've done a lot of various computer-related stuff in my life. Currently, I'm very interested in applied and theoretical cryptography and how to use it to solve societal and technical problems. Specifically, I've recently been working with randomizable signatures. -- Education/Jobs -- I'm currently a 4th year PhD student in computer science at Brown where I'm working with Anna Lysyanskaya. I graduated from Portland State University with a master's in computer science in June 2019. I got my bachelor's in computer science from Oregon State University. I worked at Intel as a security researcher/engineer and co-authored a patent there. -- Conference/Journal Publications -- Title: Delegatable Anonymous Credentials From Mercurial Signatures With Stronger Privacy Authors: Scott Griffy, Anna Lysyanskaya, Omid Mir, Octavio Pérez Kempner, and Daniel Slamanig Published in: ASIACRYPT 2024 Title: PACIFIC: Privacy-preserving automated contact tracing scheme featuring integrity against cloning Authors: Scott Griffy and Anna Lysyanskaya Published in: IACR Communications in Cryptography (CIC) Issue 1 Volume 2 Title: SoK: Signatures With Randomizable Keys Authors: Sofía Celi, Scott Griffy, Lucjan Hanzlik, Octavio Pérez Kempner, and Daniel Slamanig Published in: Financial Cryptography and Data Security (FC) 2024 Title: Aggregate Signatures with Versatile Randomization and Issuer-Hiding Multi-Authority Anonymous Credentials Authors: Omid Mir, Balthazar Bauer, Scott Griffy, Anna Lysyanskaya, and Daniel Slamanig) Published in: ACM CCS 2023 Title: The Strength of Weak Randomization: Easily Deployable, Efficiently Searchable Encryption with Minimal Leakage Authors: David Pouliot, Scott Griffy, and Charles Wright Published in: IEEE Dependable Systems and Networks (DSN) 2019 -- Other publications -- My Master's thesis introduced a concrete version of a scheme for exceptional access. It is titled: Crumpled and Abraded Encryption: Implementation and Provably Secure Construction. PSU library link. Advisor: Charles V. Wright.
I presented work based on my master's thesis at DIMACS 2020 Workshop on Co-Development of Computer Science and Law -- Other Projects -- I (along with others) run the cryptography reading group at Brown, so if you're in the area and would like to come present your work to the group, please reach out to me at myfirstname_mylastname@brown.edu. I used to help out at a club called "GEMS" (Game & Entertainment-Making Students) at Portland State University. I make Android games and apps. -- Techincal Write-ups -- Here's some old links to write-ups I've done on practical computer security: 2016-07-08 Reverse shell in shellcode. 2016-09-14 Using fuzzing to find bugs.
