The Cryptology and Social Life project is a collaboration between the Department of Information Security and Communication Technology (IIK) and the Department of Sociology and Political Science (ISS) at NTNU. We aim to research various social aspects of cryptology using our knowledge and experience in cryptology, human-centric cybersecurity, and ethnography.

We are excited to announce that we have received 200 KNOK in seed funding from the NTNU Community strategic area to launch the project.

We visited the Social Foundations of Cryptography research group in London in February 2025 to learn about their work and share experiences.
