[Real World Crypto @RealWorldCrypto]

Final day and we are going out swinging. Privacy tech, Bluetooth deep-dives, a bird's-eye view from Nadia Heninger, PKI dispatches, TLS war stories, and lightning talks. No one's leaving early. #realworldcrypto

Speaker Nikolas Melissaris talks about What Is Cryptography Hiding from Itself? by Diego F. Aranha and Nikolas Melissaris.

[Real World Crypto @RealWorldCrypto]

@grittygrease @kaepora This is the session that reminds us: cryptography is not just math. It's policy, ethics, power, and access. When proofs aren't enough, context matters. And building crypto education in Lebanon proves cryptographic infrastructure can be an act of resilience.

[Real World Crypto @RealWorldCrypto]

The room gets philosophical. Cryptography & Society chaired by Nick Sullivan (@grittygrease ): what is crypto hiding from itself? Security vs. interoperability? CRA policy? Proofs that aren't enough? And Nadim Kobeissi ( @kaepora) on teaching crypto in post-crisis Lebanon.

[Real World Crypto @RealWorldCrypto]

Every cloud has a ciphertext lining Cloud Encryption chaired by Joseph Bonneau (@josephbonneau ): E2EE for collaborative docs (yes, really), and random-access AEAD that's actually fast and lightweight. Can we have both? Apparently, yes.

[Real World Crypto @RealWorldCrypto]

The quantum future is not waiting. Post-Quantum Constructions chaired by Douglas Stebila: hybrid KEMs, threshold ML-DSA, a stronger Signal handshake (XHMQV), and a full call to action for quantum-safe Signal group messaging. #realworldcrypto

[Real World Crypto @RealWorldCrypto]

Passkeys, TLS, and digital identity: Christopher Harrell from @Yubico takes the stage defending the open Internet. The privacy stakes of authentication have never been higher and the window to get this right is now. #realworldcrypto

[Real World Crypto @RealWorldCrypto]

Good morning from Taipei Day 2 of Real World Crypto: privacy, passkeys, PQC, cloud crypto, and some big questions about cryptography's place in society. We're not letting up. #realworldcrypto

[Real World Crypto @RealWorldCrypto]

That's a wrap on Day 1! Now time to meet the people whose papers you've been citing. Reception happening in Taipei in a few. See you on the other side. #realworldcrypto
