This article demonstrates the implementation of indistinguishability obfuscation (iO) by constructing a non-interactive conditional signature printer. Starting from public truth tables, fully homomorphic encryption (FHE), and functional encryption (FE), it culminates in an augmented FE approach to achieve iO, enabling non-interactive signatures without revealing the key. iO, viewed as an extension of FE, supports dynamic user inputs, unlocking new possibilities for privacy-preserving applications

In this podcast episode, Anna Rose speaks with Florent Tavernier and Marek Olszewski from Self about bringing identity onchain using zero-knowledge proofs (ZK), Sybil protection, and the origins of OpenPassport. The discussion explores Self’s approach to supporting various forms of ID, the challenges of disparate cryptographic standards, and how government signatures can bootstrap onchain identity systems.

This article introduces SnarkSentinel, an AI-powered ZK auditing tool developed by zkSecurity, exploring AI’s potential in finding vulnerabilities in zero-knowledge circuits and applications. Experiments show AI excels at detecting minor, well-known bugs and comparing specifications with implementations, but struggles with complex cryptographic vulnerabilities and reducing false positives. While AI cannot fully replace human auditors yet, it can enhance audit efficiency and coverage.
