    FrisiaCrypt 2019

    September 15 - 19th, 2019

    at the Island of Borkum

    Workshop on Symmetric Cryptography

    IT Security plays a crucial role in everyday life and business. Virtually all modern security solutions are based on cryptographic primitives. Symmetric cryptography deals with the case that both the sender and the receiver of a message are using the same key and is highly relevant not only for academia, but also for industrial research and applications.

    This workshop aims to provide a forum for well-established international researchers and experts as well as junior scientists to exchange and work on ideas and interests in open problems in symmetric cryptography. The workshop is guided by invited talks where concrete open problems are presented which are tackled by small groups in coworking spaces consisting of junior and well-established researchers formed during the workshop. The workshop is organized by the University of Applied Sciences Emden-Leer and the Horst-Görtz-Institute, Ruhr-University Bochum.

    It will take place at the Kulturinsel, Island of Borkum, Germany, during September 15-19, 2019. Borkum is the largest and westernmost of the East Frisian Islands in the North Sea. It is by invitation only, free of charge including an attractive social program and a fascinating trip to and back to the island. For further information see the corresponding sections below.
