Abstract | This course will introduce the basic primitives of cryptography, using rigorous syntax and game-based security definitions. The course will show how these primitives can be combined to build cryptographic protocols and systems. | |||||
Objective | The goal of the course is to put students' understanding of cryptography on sound foundations, to enable them to start to build well-designed cryptographic systems, and to expose them to some of the pitfalls that arise when doing so. | |||||
Content | Basic symmetric primitives (block ciphers, modes, hash functions); generic composition; AEAD; basic secure channels; basic public key primitives (encryption,signature, DH key exchange); ECC; randomness; applications. | |||||
Literature | Textbook: Boneh and Shoup, “A Graduate Course in Applied Cryptography”, Link. | |||||
Prerequisites / Notice | Ideally, students will have taken the D-INFK Bachelors course “Information Security" or an equivalent course at Bachelors level. |
