Can we provably immunize protocols against coordinated attacks on the internet? Can we verify that computation is performed correctly while preserving the privacy of underlying data? Can we enable mutually distrusting participants to securely compute on distributed private data?

These are some of the core challenges that lie at the heart of modern cryptography and secure protocol design.

We present succinct data structures for one-dimensional color reporting and color counting problems. We are given a set of $n$ points with integer coordinates in the range $[1,m]$ and every point is assigned a color from the set $\{\,1,\ldots,\sigma\,\}$. A color reporting query asks for the list of distinct colors that occur in a query interval $[a,b]$ and a color counting query asks for the number of distinct colors in $[a,b]$.
