  text: "Modern-day communication has become more and more digital. While this comes
    with many advantages such as a more efficient economy, it has also created more
    and more opportunities for various adversaries to manipulate communication or
    eavesdrop on it. The Snowden revelations in 2013 further highlighted the seriousness
    of these threats. To protect the communication of people, companies, and states
    from such threats, we require cryptography with strong security guarantees.\r\nDifferent
    applications may require different security properties from cryptographic schemes.
    For most applications, however, so-called adaptive security is considered a reasonable
    minimal requirement of security. Cryptographic schemes with adaptive security
    remain secure in the presence of an adversary that can corrupt communication partners
    to respond to messages of the adversaries choice, while the adversary may choose
    the messages based on previously observed interactions.\r\nWhile cryptography
    is associated the most with encryption, this is only one of many primitives that
    are essential for the security of digital interactions. This thesis presents novel
    identity-based encryption (IBE) schemes and verifiable random functions (VRFs)
    that achieve adaptive security as outlined above. Moreover, the cryptographic
    schemes presented in this thesis are proven secure in the standard model. That
    is without making use of idealized models like the random oracle model."

  text: "Version Control Systems (VCS) are a valuable tool for software development\r\nand
    document management. Both client/server and distributed (Peer-to-Peer)\r\nmodels
    exist, with the latter (e.g., Git and Mercurial) becoming\r\nincreasingly popular.
    Their distributed nature introduces complications,\r\nespecially concerning security:
    it is hard to control the dissemination of\r\ncontents stored in distributed VCS
    as they rely on replication of complete\r\nrepositories to any involved user.\r\n\r\nWe
    overcome this issue by designing and implementing a concept for\r\ncryptography-enforced
    access control which is transparent to the user. Use\r\nof field-tested schemes
    (end-to-end encryption, digital signatures) allows\r\nfor strong security, while
    adoption of convergent encryption and\r\ncontent-defined chunking retains storage
    efficiency. The concept is\r\nseamlessly integrated into Mercurial---respecting
    its distributed storage\r\nconcept---to ensure practical usability and compatibility
    to existing\r\ndeployments."
