NEW EPISODE! The gang talks about what AI getting Good At Math™ might mean for cryptography, & why public-key cryptography probably isn’t ending. David is on a mission to civilize and claims a crisis of empiricism. securitycryptographywhatever… youtube.com/watch?v=qIzbr-KH…

History is made as AES is projected to be the first block cipher elected to the United States Senate.

ANTHROPIC: Our very smart son built a Git server replacement OPENAI: Our chud son also replaced Git
We built Pando, a new Git backend for our monorepo, to handle more pushes and fetches without changing how our engineers and agents use Git. Pando cut push latency by ~80% and now serves nearly a petabyte of Git data a day. We can grow Git capacity alongside agent usage.

New update to cryptoconspiracybench.org/! Anthropic - 2 Everybody Else - 0
Claude and @avhwl also found that Skipjack cipher's s-box is generated by srand48(48571) plus some swaps.

We had fellow Michigan Man @ChrisPeikert on the podcast. Since the last time Peikert was on, Michigan won a national championship in both football and basketball. This is the new bar for repeat guests.
NEW EPISODE! Lattices! New results in the closest vector problem & possible poly-time quantum attack against the dihedral coset problem that made everyone freak out for about a week; ALSO there's a distinguisher attack against Classic McEliece 😱 youtu.be/7_Db0LXQrk0

Fans of Deirdre and David (and Chris Peikert, of course) will be psyched: the rare SCW episode where I get not one single line in. Theoretical advances for lattices and McEliece, this week on Security Cryptography Whatever. securitycryptographywhatever…

I wrote a post about how security undervalues preventing problems, and how this can be exasperated by AI and the vulnpocalypse, even though AI should actually make robustness much easier for defenders

Achievement unlocked: recorded an episode of Security Cryptography Whatever where I had not only not one good minute, but not one interjection. A blessedly me-free episode with Chris Peikert, coming soon.
