+% Title page
+% - Hi everyone
+% - Welcome to my talk <tile>
+% - I'm Rasmus
+% -- I work in the TCR group together with Fredrik and others
+% -- I've been here since September, and it started out as an internship.  Then
+% we decided to prolong that into something more permanent.
+% -- I am also aff. with Kau, where I do my PhD studies.
+% -- Surprise surprise, my thesis is about transparent logs.

+	% To give you the backdrop.
+	%
+	% DigiNotar was a so-called certificate authority that issues web certs
+	% - If this means nothing to you, it is sort of like passports but for
+	% websites.  In real life we have a trusted government body that is
+	% responsible of issuing our passports.  We trust that a passport will not
+	% be issued for us unless we can prove that we are who we say we are.
+	% - In the digital world certificate authorities play this role but for
+	% websites.  This way, you can be sure that you are really visiting
+	% mullvad.net, and not someone that is impersonating our domain.
+	%
+	% So, the expectation here is that you would only issue a certificate to the
+	% rightful domain owner.  At minimum, this requires some identity checking.
+	%
+	% Let's get back to what happened then.
+	%
+	% It turns out that DigiNotar was hacked.  They issued fraudulent
+	% certificates for Google, Facebook, Twitter, Mozilla, Tor, and many others.
+	%
+	% This was detected by DigiNotar a week after the incident.
+	% - They decided to be silent.
+	%
+	% The only reason why we detected this is because of a large scale attack
+	% in Iran, which targeted 300k gmail users.  If the attacker had been more
+	% stealthy, we probably would not have detected the attack.
+	%
+	% Fortunately we did detect the attack.  Soon thereafter, none of the major
+	% browser trusted DigiNotar anymore.  In September, a bankruptcy was filed.

+	% What to make of this then?
+	%
+	% First of all, DigiNotar was neither the first nor the last.  Many
+	% certificate authorities messed up before them.  Many certificate
+	% authorities messed up after them.
+	%
+	% It would be incredibly helpful if we could detect if a certificate
+	% authority makes mistakes.  In the case of certificate management,
+	% detection really comes down to the ability of discovering which
+	% certificates have been issued for whom.
+	%
+	% From this intuition the idea of Certificate Transparency is simple.
+	% - Talk about figure.
+	% - Emphasize that the log is not a trusted party due to crypto magic.

+	% 1. Our design is about transparency logs.  So, I need to explain briefly
+	% what a transparency log is.
+	% 2. Append-only Merkle tree.  You can think of the data as being stored in
+	% the leaves.  Each leaf is hashed.  Parents concatenate their children
+	% hashes to produces their own hash values.  Repeat until single root hash.
+	% 3. The root hash is usually called a tree head.
+	% 4. Tree head interesting because it fixes the structure and the content of
+	% the tree.  Add/remove/modify -> new tree head.
+	% 5. If the log signs the tree head, you can hold it accountable for its
+	% structure and content.
+	% 6. This is important because the attacker can control the log.
+	% 7. So we cannot trust that the log is append-only.  We will need to verify
+	% that.  To this end we have consistency proofs.  The intuition is that you
+	% can force the log to reveal a number of cryptographic hashes.  These
+	% hashes will prove that the tree head you see today is consistent with the
+	% tree head you saw yesterday.
+	% 8. You can also prove that something is in the log efficiently.  This is
+	% called an inclusion proof.  The intuition is that you reveal a number of
+	% hashes.  If you can use them to reconstruct the root of a globally
+	% consistent tree head you can be sure that some data is in the log.
+	% 8. Global consistency (as opposed to just consistency) is what prevents
+	% the log from creating forks.  I will return to this later on because it is
+	% an important part of our design.
+	% (9. Not having global consistency would be like having a blockchain
+	% without a consensus mechanism.)
