Zusammenfassung:Techniques for privacy-preserving contact tracing are disclosed, including: generating, by a first user device, a first proximity token for contact tracing; receiving, by the first user device, a second proximity token from a second user device; generating, by the first user device, a hash based on the first proximity token and the second proximity token; generating, by the first user device using a prover function of a preprocessing zero knowledge succinct non-interactive argument of knowledge (pp-zk-SNARK), a cryptographic proof attesting that an individual associated with the first user device tested positive for a pathogen; and transmitting, by the first user device, publicly verifiable exposure data including at least the cryptographic proof and the hash to a public registry.
