The Eighth Theory of Cryptography Conference (TCC 2011) will be held from March 28 to March 30 in Providence, and it takes place at Brown University.

The Theory of Cryptography Conference focuses on paradigms, approaches and techniques used to conceptualize, define, and provide solutions to natural cryptographic problems.

TCC 2011 is supported by the International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR). Previous TCCs took place at MIT (2004 and 2005), Columbia University (2006), KNAW Trippenhuis (2007), New York University (2008), San Francisco (2009), and ETH Zurich (2010).

We thank Brown University for hosting TCC, and Microsoft, Google, IBM and AT&T for financial support.
