/* ====== CRoCS ====== */
===== Centre for Research on Cryptography and Security =====
**C**entre for **R**esearch **o**n **C**ryptography and **S**ecurity started in 2006 as a laboratory at [[https://www.muni.cz/en|Masaryk University]], [[https://fi.muni.cz|Faculty of Informatics]]. We aim to improve security and privacy through applied research (often in cooperation with industry) and advanced education of future security professionals. Supplemented by occasional beer-touring, boardgaming and juggling.
