Featured topics: Advanced cryptographic techniques (ZKP, MPC, FHE, ABE, and others).
Structure: Welcome/introduction; 6 invited talks; panel conversation.
Date and time: July 25th (Tuesday), 2023, 09:30–15:30 EDT.
Location/format: Virtual event (video conference; webinar format).
Attendance: Open and free to the public, upon registration (attendees can pose questions via chat / Q&A functionality).
Schedule (list of talks): Details to be announced. Planned to include six (6) talks, including about efforts related to zero-knowledge proofs (ZKP), multi-party computation (MPC), fully-homomophic encryption (FHE), attribute-based encryption (ABE) and other advanced cryptographic techniques.

About STPPA: In the "Special Topics on Privacy and Public Auditability" series, the NIST privacy-enhancing cryptography (PEC) project hosts talks on various interconnected topics related to privacy and public auditability. A main goal of the STPPA series is to gather reference material about "PEC tools", which may facilitate future reflections on aspects of standardization and of development of recommendations/guidelines about advanced cryptography, namely for uses related to privacy and public auditability. Each event intends to convey basic technical background, incite curiosity, suggest research questions and discuss applications, with an emphasis on the role of cryptographic tools.
