Abstract: Cryptography is a discipline that traditionally dealt with securing communication. In the last 3-4 decades it has greatly expanded, and it can be now defined as a scientific area whose goal is to construct protocols that secure digital economy. Moreover, cryptography has recently experienced a rapid boost in interest, due to an enormous success of the so-called “cryptographic currencies”, such as Bitcoin. This talk will contain a brief introduction to this area. I will also present some of my research contributions into it.

Note: this talk will not contain any advice on investing in cryptocurrencies.
