Acquiring general knowledge of cryptography and cryptanalysis. Upon completion of the course,
\nstudents have a basic knowledge of cryptography. Students know various classes of cryptosystems.
\nThey also know the techniques for creating a digital signature and key exchange.<\/p>\n
Students are introduced to the subject of cryptography. A brief overview of knowledge related to number
\ntheory. The most well-known algorithms for factoring large numbers and the most well-known
\nalgorithms for checking whether a large number is prime. Several most well-known
\nalgorithms for determining a discrete logarithm. The most famous cryptosystems. The basic characteristics of cryptosystems with symmetric and asymmetric keys. The representatives of cryptosystems with symmetric and asymmetric keys. The notion of a hash function. The most well-known digital signature algorithms. The key exchange procedures.<\/p>\n
Solving computational problems related to number theory using some knowledge and algorithms
\ncovered in lectures: determining the greatest common divisor using the Euclidean algorithm, applying
\nBezout’s theorem, determining the multiplicative inverse, calculating the value of Euler’s function,
\napplying Euler’s and Fermat’s theorem, using the Chinese remainder theorem. Implementation of
\nalgorithms for checking whether a number is a prime number, as well as algorithms for factorisation of natural
\nnumbers. Implementation of algorithms for determining discrete logarithm. Implementation of some well-
\nknown classical and modern cryptosystems (Vigenere’s, Playfair’s, transposition, substitution, RSA, DES,
\nAES, etc.). Application of hash function. Implementation of digital signature algorithms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
