Proud to announce despite lockdowns and some difficulties with name convention transformation Encrypt(Syd) MeetUp continues to enjoy the audience with new LIGHTNING talks online.

Happy to deliver a talk to CryptoAustralia meetup. Today’s topic is “post-quantum cryptography & privacy”
Munich Workshop on Coding and Cryptography 2018
That was a great experience indeed!
I have attended Workshop on Coding and Cryptography in Technical University of Munich (TUM) on April 10-11, 2018.
We have a pleasure to listen lots of interesting talks, met lots of and participated in the poster session.

A special thank you to Prof. Dr. Antonia Wachter-Zeh for making this happen!
Spring vulnerabilities
As it has been reported by pivotal yesterday (March 6th, 2018) initially reported (Sept last year) vulnerability has been corrected in latest versions of Spring Data REST and Spring Boot.
The dynamic of the growth of how many discovered vulnerabilities have been fixed recently does not inspire an optimism. Taking into account number of arbitrary code execution vulnerability calling Spring as sustainable platform might be raise some reasonable questions…
Microworld part II. Digital microscope
Today we have a great opportunity to connect fancy magnifying glass to your laptop or iPad. The device I’m talking about called digital microscope. Fancy stones or even fancy phones are looking really good with up to x300:
Future is already here
Yesterday my some helped me to manage to connect my mob phone (Pixel, but it might be any modern mob phone) to a microscope. Just one of those students microscopes teachers recommends those days for school. And the result was above my expectations indeed!

Universe simulation based on general relativity
Found this simulation some time ago, it’s called Bolshoi (from Russian большой, that means Big, Great).
Had a nice conversation after the talk I gave at SASI last week:

Thanks to our president and members at SASI without whom this wouldn’t happen.
Post-quantum cryptography
Looking forward of my first article since 2009 to appear in IEEE volume early next year! It has been accepted along with the talk that has been delivered as part of MIPT EnT Conference http://www.en-t.info/ieee-articles-en.shtml . Thank you very much to Oksana Trushina for helping to make this happen!
We were focusing on Code-Based Cryptosystems and how they evolve since 197x. https://dasiopia.com/projects/code-based-cryptosystems-evolution/
Did you know that one of them (McEliece system) is a candidate to become a post-quantum cryptography standard?
And as always expressing my deepest gratitudes to E. Gabidulin and N. Pilipchuck.
Last year MIPT EnT papers can be found here: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/mostRecentIssue.jsp?punumber=7807456
Deep Space Communication Complex
We’ve visited The Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex (CDSCC) last Sunday and being there we even didn’t fully realised how lucky we were.
The fact is that the complex were receiving the signal from Voyager that day!
If you want to know what is happening with all radio telescopes in real life you would probably like to visit: http://eyes.nasa.gov/dsn/dsn.htm
