OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
This talk takes a look at the tumultuous history of cryptography from the late 20th century to today.
It gives an introduction to cryptography as a State tool for secret communication and as a weapon of war, and its transition into a so-called dual-use technology. The talk concludes by exploring cryptographic algorithms from the perspective of civil resistance and asymmetric warfare.
Speaker: Andreas Tsamados
This in-person event is free and open to all. Refreshments will be served from 5.00 pm, followed by the talk at 5.30 pm. There will be a Q&A session after the talk and a drinks reception.
