The Summer School-Conference "Cryptography and Information Security" is a traditional event organised by the Cryptographic Center and the International Mathematical Center in Akademgorodok in cooperation with different universities and companies. This year the Summer School is organised in cooperation with and on the basis of Saint-Petersburg State University of Aerospace Instrumentation.

Dates and venue: 7-21 July 2025, Saint-Petersburg. Participation format: full-time. There is a possibility of partial material support for the arrival and accommodation of non-resident participants.

The students are expected to attend lectures, team and individual work in projects related to solving research problems in the field of cryptography and information security, sports activities. One of the most important events of the school-conference is a round table on modern problems of cryptography. The topics of the projects will touch upon the construction of cryptographic protocols for solving authentication, identification, key transfer, messaging and other cryptographic problems.

Graduate and postgraduate students from universities, high school students are invited to participate.

Applications will be accepted until 15 May 2025. To apply, please visit the school website.

In 2024 the Summer School was held in Taganrog in cooperation with Southern Federal University. Students successfully worked on projects together with leading Russian researchers in the field of cryptography.

On December 11, live on the “Region life” program on the OTS TV channel, the head of the Cryptographic Center Natalya Tokareva spoke about cryptography and its development in Siberia. They talked about modern ciphers, the history of cryptography, scientific results and the international Olympiad.

The results of the International Cryptography Olympiad Non-Stop University CRYPTO, which was held remotely from October 13 to October 21, 2024, were summarized. https://nsucrypto.nsu.ru/archive/2024/total_results /.

The organizers and partners of the Olympiad are the Cryptographic Center (Novosibirsk), the National Technological Center for Digital Cryptography, Novosibirsk State University, the Northwestern Center for Mathematical Research named after Sofia Kovalevskaya, the University of Leuven (Belgium), the companies Kryptonite and Active, Southern Federal University, Belarusian State University, Tomsk State University.

A delegation from the National Technological Center for Digital Cryptography (Moscow), headed by Director General I.F.Kachalin, arrives especially for summing up and awarding the students of NSU – the winners of the Olympiad.

On November 27, at 11:00 a.m., an open lecture "Features of the application of modern cryptography in practice" from E.K.Alekseev, Director of Scientific Research at the Scientific Research Center of the Central Committee, will take place in au. 4117. At the end of the lecture, the winners of the NSUCRYPTO-2024 Olympiad from NSU will be awarded. We invite everyone!

More than 1,250 students, professionals and schoolchildren from 47 countries took part in NSUCRYPTO-2024. At the same time, there are quite a lot of winners from NSU.

In the individual round in the "schoolchildren" category, Maria Koch, a student of the SUNC NSU, took third place. She was opposed by schoolchildren from India and Vietnam. In the student section, Ivan Baksheev, a FIT student, received a second degree diploma, who managed to bypass the participants from Finland and Singapore. Roman Lebedev, a lecturer at the Faculty of Information Technology, was awarded a second degree diploma in the "professionals" category. His rivals were strong participants from the UK, China and Poland.

In the team round, the second place was taken by the team of Ivan Baksheev, a student of FIT. The third degree diplomas were awarded to the team of MMF students consisting of Anvar Mukumov and Egor Plotnikov and the team of Daria Koroleva (MMF), Andrey Larionov (MMF) and Mikhail Tsukanov (FIT). Our students competed with teams from the USA, Serbia, Indonesia, Vietnam and Bangladesh. Alexander Bakharev (MMF), Rinchin Zapanov (ISI SB RAS) and Denis Bykov (MMF) took second place in the "professionals" category: they managed to beat strong teams from Germany, India, China, Romania, Poland, Vietnam and Italy.

MMF students Igor Babushkin, Denis Voronov, Ilya Gunin, Taisiya Kashintseva, Lyubov Kolbasova, Taisiya Petruneva and FIT student Alexey Vishnevsky were awarded diplomas of the Olympiad.

Congratulations to the winners and runners-up of 2024!

We invite students and teachers of MMF, FIT and everyone to an open lecture!
