In Glowing Hot Topics in Cryptography (GHTC) series of workshops consists of a one-day round table event discussing some of the hottest topics in cryptography. The round tables will feature world renown panelist from both industry and academy. GHTC aims to provide a forum for exchanging ideas, research, and insights on hot topics in cryptography. This event is focused on a single cryptographic hot topic, for people to gather and exchange ideas about it. This event also aims to focus on being an opportunity for people to mingle, exchange ideas in closer groups, and establish and strengthen working relationships.
The third edition of GHTC, a workshop series dedicated to exploring cutting-edge cryptographic topics, will delve into the provocative theme: "Has Academic Cryptography Over-Promised and Under-Delivered?" This year, we aim to scrutinize cryptographic applications that were once met with great enthusiasm but whose real-world impact remains under development. Specifically, we will investigate the long-term viability of these cryptographic applications: Can they withstand the test of time?
The event will be hybrid so that attendees, panelists, and moderators can attend GHTC 2024 in person or remotely.
The workshop is an affiliated event of WWW.CRYPTO2024.COM.
