Trisha Datta

Thanks for having me! Was great to share the work we'll be presenting next week at SBC'25!

So, if you are at SBC in August (sbc-conference.com/2025/), come hear about it from @TrishaCDatta's and @nazirkamilla's talk!

Our key innovation is the design of a new proof system that enables proving knowledge of a signature on a large amount of witness data.

VerITAS is the first system to use zk-SNARKs to prove that only certain edits have been applied to a signed photo for realistically sized images (~30 megapixels).

Excited to share VerITAS - a system for using ZK-proofs for image provenance verification: eprint.iacr.org/2024/1066. This is joint work with @Charles_Chen533 and @danboneh.

Excited to be speaking at the ZKProof Policy Workshop on Nov 30. You can find more details (including info about virtual registration) here: zkproof.org/events/zkproof…

Excited to share that our paper on Post-Quantum Single Secret Leader Election (SSLE) has been accepted at AFT'23! This is joint work with @danboneh & Lior Rotem. We will also present this work tomorrow at SBC’23! Here's the eprint: eprint.iacr.org/2023/1241 (1/3)

Some v exciting news - earlier this year, we created ZK-proofs for redacted documents for a @RollingStone article, and that article just got nominated for an Emmy!! theemmys.tv/news/44th-nomi…

Had a great time last week at @RealWorldCrypto where I spoke about using zero-knowledge proofs to fight disinformation. If you're curious, you can watch my talk here (starting at 49:16): lnkd.in/g_DBzGxA.

Fighting disinformation with ZK proofs! Trisha Datta discusses how zk-SNARKs can be used to verify image provenance, without requiring trust in third-party applications. With practical proof generation for various common photo edits, verification times are around 10 ms!

@heydari_be @danboneh @zeroknowledgefm Thank you for the shoutout - super excited to be presenting this work at @RealWorldCrypto in a couple weeks!

The ZKP track is super interesting, especially with "Using ZK Proofs to Fight Disinformation" by @danboneh and @TrishaCDatta. Dan talked about it on the @zeroknowledgefm; it is truly fascinating.

I wish I could attend @RealWorldCrypto this year; it is unfortunately very far from us. #realworldcrypt is a conference very close to my heart. You can meet the actual people behind those names working on the theory and practice of cryptography.

@nichochar @benediktbuenz @danboneh Thanks for the shoutout! We'll be presenting this work at Real World Crypto 2023 in March if anyone is curious to learn more!

@benediktbuenz @danboneh @TrishaCDatta yes, I am ashamed to mention just Dan but I ran out of characters. Please accept my apology @TrishaCDatta 🙏

Very interesting proof of concept from @danboneh: use ZK-proofs to trust provenance of images (and fight disinformation). The idea is that you sign the original image and only allow certain standard operations (grayscale, crop, resize) using ZK methods. @boneh/using-zk-proofs-to-fight-disinformation-17e7d57fe52f" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@boneh/using-z…

Got to do some really cool work with the folks at Starling Lab at the intersection of photo integrity + cryptography. If you’re interested in learning more about the tech, you can read more here: @boneh/using-zk-proofs-to-fight-disinformation-17e7d57fe52f" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@boneh/using-z…

Check out our puzzle at ZK Hack III zkhack.dev/zkhackIII/puzz…. Had a lot of fun designing this with @danboneh, Trisha, @mercysjest and Alex!
