Summary

Bill's annual crypto and security roundup

Abstract

The tradition of an annual Cryptography/Cryptananlsis/Cryptology News Update and Historical Vignette originated with hosting a PGP Key-signing part, but has survived that ceremony.

The featured news story in 2022 will be update on progress (& controversy) on Post-Quantum Cryptography and Quantum Cryptanalysis (and how that's different from Quantum-Cryptography).

The histories vignette will be Bletchley Park's other other machine to break machines.
