Subject: DIMACS Tutorial on Applied Cryptography and Network Security:
  NJ, Aug 4-7

During August 4-7, I'll give, together with Markus Jakobsson, Angelos 
Keromytis, Hugo Krawczyk, and Rebecca Wright, a `crash course on 
cryptography and its applications to secure networking and electronic 
commerce`, in DIMACS (located in Piscataway, central New Jersey). For 
details, program etc. see 
http://dimacs.rutgers.edu/Workshops/ComputerSecurity/.

This is a non-profit operation and indeed fees are very reasonable (regular 
250$, and 125$ discount for students, post-docs, etc.; and this includes 
lunch etc.), and they even say they may give financial aid when necessary. 
I hope we  made a good program (much of it based on my lectures/foils, see 
at http://amir.herzberg.name/book.html), and that this would be a nice 
opportunity for people to refresh themselves on some of the fundamentals 
and see some new perspectives, or simply to get a quick introduction to the 
areas of applied cryptography and secure communication and commerce. So 
please consider joining us, and forward to forums or individuals that may 
be interested.
