Samvaad-Talk by Prof. Bhavana Kanukurthi, Computer Science and Automation, IISc on August 05, 2019.
Title of the Talk: Tour de Crypto
Abstract: In this talk, Prof. Bhavana Kanukurthi will walk the audience through the history of cryptography. In the process, she'll present a few simple ideas which she thinks best captures the essence of this fascinating field. She will finally give a brief survey of the research themes that we are currently exploring in our research group. The talk will be suitable for a general science/engineering audience. No prior knowledge of crypto (or, for that matter, any aspect of computer science) will be assumed.
