  <itunes:subtitle>Zero-Knowledge proofs have broadened the realm of use cases for applied cryptography over the past decade, from privacy-enhanced cryptocurrencies to applications in voting, finance, protecting medical data and more. In 2018, Dr. Eli Ben-Sasson and his team introduced ZK-STARKs, a new zero-knowledge construction that functions without trusted setup, thereby broadening what zero-knowledge systems are capable of. We’ll talk about ZK-STARKs and more with Eli in this episode of Cryptography FM.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;Zero-knowledge proofs have been a notorious research target ever since Zcash and other cryptocurrencies have invented lots of new use cases for them. Range proofs, bullet proofs, you name it – all kinds of zero-knowledge mechanisms have received more and more attention.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But what about using zero-knowledge proofs to prove the existence of a software vulnerability? That way, you can prove that you have a zero-day without risking it getting stolen, putting both vulnerability researchers as well as companies looking to secure their software in a better position!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That’s what Dr. David Archer from Galois is working on, and he joins me today on Cryptography FM to discuss this new interesting use case, and more.&lt;/p&gt;
