| Description: |
Applied Cryptography plays a critical role in information security because it is the study of protocols to overcome malicious attempts to compromise computer security. The course will allow students to use cryptography to analyze and develop more secure and robust applications. Students will understand the implementation challenges associated with cryptosystems. |
| Learning Goals: |
Upon completion of the course, students will be able to:1. Recognize historic milestones in the development of the field of cryptography.2. Articulate, explain and select basic cryptographic techniques, given a specific situation.3. Articulate, explain and select basic cryptanalysis techniques, given a specific situation.4. Articulate and explain details of symmetric cryptographic systems, and identify strengths, weaknesses, and implementation challenges.5. Articulate and explain details of asymmetric cryptographic systems, and identify strength, weaknesses, and implementation challenges.6. Articulate and explain details of stream ciphers, and identify their strengths, weaknesses, and implementation challenges, and to implement (parts of) these algorithms in computer code.7. Describe details of cryptographic algorithms DES and AES, and implement (parts of) these algorithms in computer code.8. Explain and describe properties of message digests and hashing algorithms, and implement computer code using these algorithms.9. Explain the concepts underlying Transport Layer Security (TLS) *The learning goals displayed here are those for one section of this course as offered in a recent semester, and are provided for the purpose of information only. The exact learning goals for each course section in a specific semester will be stated on the syllabus distributed at the start of the semester, and may differ in wording and emphasis from those shown here. |
