About

When I saw how dense the European Covid Greep Pass QR code is, I got immediately curious: "WOW, there must be a lot of interesting data in here". So, I started to dig deeper and I found that there's really a great wealth of interesting encoding and verification technologies being used in it! In this talk, I will share what I learned! We will go on a journey where we will explore Base54 encoding, COSE tokens, CBOR serialization, elliptic curve crypto, and much more! Finally, I will also show you how to write a decoder for Green Pass certificates in the most hyped language ever: Rust!

Cloud Architect & FullStack devfourTheorem
I was born in 1987, the same year Super Mario Bros was released in Europe, which, is my favourite game! I started coding at the age of 12, hacking away with my father's old i386 armed only with MS-DOS and the QBasic interpreter and since then I have been professionally a software developer for more than 10 years. I love the full-stack web, Node.js & Serveless. I co-authored "Node.js design patterns" (https://www.nodejsdesignpatterns.com), launched fstack.link and Serverlesslab.com
