The Cryptographic Applications Workshop (CAW) happens this Sunday in Rome! Just a reminder that if you're not coming to Rome you can still attend remotely. Just register here: forms.gle/2JZ7hLs8diQM... before May 8. See caw.cryptanalysis.fun for more infos and our program.

If you cannot attend in person, you can sign up to attend remotely (for free). We'll do our best to provide good video and audio quality, as well as the opportunity to ask questions remotely. To sign up for attending remotely, see caw.cryptanalysis.fun#registration

The program for our Eurocrypt affiliated event CAW on May 10 is (mostly) finalized and published on: caw.cryptanalysis.fun We received many super exciting submissions! To register, select our workshop during conference registration on the Eurocrypt website once that opens: eurocrypt.iacr.org/2026/

@hjkl.space, @mirohaller.bsky.social, @laurahetz.bsky.social, Matilda and I are organizing CAW this year! Fun fact: a few talks that appeared at RWC this year have also been presented at CAW in prior years. Good track record! 10th May 2026, Rome caw.cryptanalysis.fun

The call for talks for CAW 2026 (a workshop affiliated with Eurocrypt) is out! This year's motto is "cryptography under real-world constraints and threat models", but other applied cryptography is also very welcome. All info is on: caw.cryptanalysis.fun.

You missed #CAW workshop at Eurocrypt? No problem, we now have recordings of most talks online: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis... Thanks again to all our speakers and participants for making this such a great event! See you again next year 🧡 For more information, see caw.cryptanalysis.fun.

This year, #CAW offers the option for remote participation to make our Eurocrypt workshop accessible to the members of our community that cannot or prefer not to travel to Madrid. Register on our website before May 2 (free): caw.cryptanalysis.fun The updated program is below.

The preliminary program for the Cryptographic Applications Workshop (CAW) at Eurocrypt'25 is out. #CAW focuses on the construction and analysis of cryptography built for practice. This thread gives a quick overview; the full program and abstracts are here: caw.cryptanalysis.fun#program

#CAW offers again a few registration waivers. We hope these waivers will help local (grad/undergrad) students to attend our workshop and get a preview of cryptography beyond the classroom and make their first connections to the community. More info: caw.cryptanalysis.fun#student-regi...

The 2nd iteration of the Cryptographic Applications Workshop (#CAW) will be at Eurocrypt 2025! #CAW focuses on the construction and analysis of cryptography built for practice, bridging the gap between research and real-world applications. Our call of talks is currently open: caw.cryptanalysis.fun
