Play & Learn With CryptoHack

CryptoHack is a fun way to learn cryptography and also acquire valuable CTF skills. Through a series of puzzles, it challenges you to break bad implementations of "modern" crypto, such as AES, RSA, and Elliptic-curves.
Although CryptoHack took its inspiration from Capture the Flag competitions, it focuses exclusively on their cryptography aspects, that is breaking ciphers, decrypting, encoding and converting between formats. Its challenges include: 
  • Downloading vulnerable source code and determining how to crack the output.
  • Making web requests to a server and slowly extracting confidential data.
  • Connecting to a port and performing a man-in-the-middle attack on two parties trying to communicate.

Europe Gets Its Own LLM

  EuroLLM is a fully open-sourced large language model made in Europe and built to support all twenty-four official EU languages. While several European states have separately produced their own LLMs, such as Greece's "Meltemi" or the recent offering from Switzerland "Apertus", there was no solution that catered for the languages of all 24 states belonging to the EU block. The time has come for this status to change with the appearance of EuroLLM, a foundational model that supports them all. https://www.i-programmer.info/news/105-artificial-intelligence/18448-europe-gets-its-own-llm.html
