Abstract: Secure Multi-Party Computation (MPC) enables secret-holders to compute joint functions of their secrets, without revealing anything about their secrets to one another – or to anyone else – apart from the function outputs. Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKP) are another tool from the cryptography toolbox; they enable secret-holders to prove statements involving their secrets, without revealing anything about the secrets. ZKP can be used as a building block for MPC – and vice versa! This talk will delve into that relationship.
