We are very pleased to announce that the seminar in Information Security and Cryptography on June 14-16 in Zurich Switzerland will take place and we still have a few places free.

The topics covered include cryptography and its foundations, system and network security, PKIs and key management, authentication and access control, privacy and data protection, and advanced topics in cryptography including blockchains and crypto currencies.

The lectures and all course material are in English. A full description of the seminar, including all topics covered, is available at https://www.infsec.ch/seminar2021.html.
