< Talk Abstract />

Public key cryptography plays an important role in Internet security, however, its security obviously relies on keeping the private key private.

The speaker is the developer of badkeys, an Open Source tool to identify cryptographic keys with known vulnerabilities. The talk will present some of the security vulnerabilities discovered using badkeys.
