Securitatis inquisitor and professor at EPFL leading the HexHive 🐝 group, focusing on system/software security (he/him).
@freddy I wasn't involved in the decision making but support the no-LLM-based on honor principle. Most teams were strongly in favor as slopping takes a lot of the fun out of CTFs. There's a difference between online and onsite though as policing is next to impossible. And the situation evolves, so we'll have to see where this whole movement goes.
School of Computer SciencesThe EDIC Open House 2026 brought together admitted PhD students, IC faculty and researchers for a day of connection and discovery. 👩🔬
The program featured lightning talks, poster sessions, one-on-one meetings, and lab visits, offering a glimpse into the vibrant research environment at EPFL.

While I'm a bug fan of second factor authentication for high risk environments, it also comes at a cost due to additional friction.
Can someone explain to me while the EU for the Horizon portal had to create a new dedicated 2FA app that maximises friction? I log into this portal once every 1.5 years. This means I'll likely have to go through the 2FA recovery process every single time.
@ligasser most servers stopped advertising the software name, would have to start parsing SPF and potentially connect to IMAP as well
What's the state of digital sovereignty for our academic landscape?
Inspired by a similar post looking at digital sovereignty of municipalities, I explored what messaging infrastructure universities rely on. Sadly, many have switched to hyper scalars but few large universities keep running their own email infrastructure. Germany, Austria, France does not look too bad and lead by example.
[Note that the assessment is based on a simple MX records comparison against a list of known scalars, I don't yet check SPF records or guesstimate the SMTP software/version, this may be done in a future version.]
