From July 7 to 21, the summer school "Cryptography and Information Security" is taking place at the Saint Petersburg State University of Aerospace Instrumentation. It is a traditional event organized by the Cryptographic Center (Novosibirsk) and the International Mathematical Center in Akademgorodok.
More than 200 teachers and students, postgraduates and schoolchildren from 35 cities of Russia took part in the summer school dedicated to the issues of modern cryptography and information security. Participants will have 15 days of work and interesting communication at the Boiling Point of GUAP: 40 hour-long lectures from leading experts from the scientific field and business, unique offers from the event partners, excursions around St. Petersburg and key enterprises of the city, training and sports games. School schedule — on the website.
The organizers and partners of the summer school are the Cryptographic Center (Novosibirsk), the International Mathematical Center in Akademgorodok, the Saint Petersburg State University of Aerospace Instrumentation, the Southern Federal University, Special Technology Center LLC, Practical Security Systems LLC, Infotex JSC, Perspective Monitoring JSC, NeoQUEST and Enseukripto-lab LLC.
The head of the summer school is Natalia Tokareva, director of the Cryptographic Center (Novosibirsk). The co-head of the summer school is GUAP professor Sergey Bezzateev.
At the opening of the summer school, GUAP Rector Yulia Antokhina wished the participants fruitful work, interesting lectures and vivid impressions
“During the two weeks of participation in the summer school, you will learn a lot of new things in the field of your chosen specialty, meet your peers, gain invaluable experience in teamwork on projects and see the sights of our beautiful city,” noted Yulia Anatolyevna.
Participants were welcomed by representatives of the event partners.
— The direction you have chosen for your future professional activity is very much in demand today. And we are interested in your support, in developing your competencies, — noted Svetlana, a representative of the company "Special Technology Center".
— The summer school can become the beginning of such a long journey for you, immersion in such an interesting science as cryptography, such an important field of activity as information security. New professional personnel in these areas are very important, — said Elena Mareeva, Deputy General Director of the company "Systems of Practical Security".
— This summer school has attracted a record number of participants. They are all active and interested. Our goal as organizers is to give students from many regions of the country the opportunity to try themselves as researchers and open up prospects for their professional growth. We are doing everything for this, — noted the head of the summer school Natalia Tokareva, head of the cryptography laboratory of the NSU MMC.
The students were presented with research projects that they will work on during the summer school. Participants listen to lectures, go on excursions and participate in sports activities. The topics of the projects touch upon various issues of modern cryptography and information security: algorithms of symmetric and asymmetric cryptography, issues of constructing cryptographic protocols for solving authentication, identification, key transfer, and message exchange problems.
