The Italian Crypto Association is organizing a PQC workshop in Oct in Trento (IT) 🤩 Check it out here: sites.google.com/unitn.it/pqcif… Submission deadline for a talk proposal (2-5pages) is August 19th. Trento is close to some of the prettiest mountains in the world, just sayin' 😉

OMG our lattice-based multisignature paper is finally on ePrint: ia.cr/2022/1036 🥳 If you're interested, don't miss Akira Takahashi's presentation at CRYPTO next week! Ow, you can find a high-level overview of its content in this thread ⬇️

Announcing the lattice-based cryptography club! Do you want to learn this type of cryptography? Find resources here: thelatticeclub.com Beautifully curated by Octavio Pérez Kempner and me. Thank you Tancrède Lepoint Muhammed Esgin Cecilia Boschini and more for allowing us to put your amazing thesis there!

Today is a great day. After getting the right to vote in 1991, women from the Appenzell canton have done it again: in 2023, we have cheese for girls 🎀 🤦‍♀️

Together with other 334 scientists and 24 ONGs, I have signed this letter eidas-open-letter.org asking the EU to reconsider their eIDAS regulation proposal. Why are we again raising our voices against new legislation?🧵

This woman is in the committee too! Please do what he says, we look forward to reading your work 🤩

Telegram has launched a pretty intense campaign to malign Signal as insecure, with assistance from Elon Musk. The goal seems to be to get activists to switch away from encrypted Signal to mostly-unencrypted Telegram. I want to talk about this a bit. 1/

We are going to be holding our first Women & Allies in Cryptography at Eurocrypt2024! Are you a person identifying as a woman or an ally attending? Ping us! cc. @KBoudgoust Allison Bishop Mahshid Riahinia check the info here womenincryptography.com/workshop/

I am looking for a PhD student in Cryptography to join our group at IMDEA Software ! Topics of interest include zero-knowledge proofs, succinct proof systems and verifiable computation, computation on encrypted data. For more information -> software.imdea.org/careers/2024-0…
