Description
This Course Focus is on Symmetric Encryption and hash functions ,we will understand the inner parts, while still making the learning curve fun and simple
We will look at secret key generation, how do we generate keys , it is much more complex than you thought
it involves permutations of the bit stream , swapping bits , shifting, substitution them and finally doing the XOR bitwise operation
You will learn the basic of modern encryption operations
We will dive into block ciphers mode of operation , how algorithms join the block ciphers together and send them along , a key concept of every symmetric encryption.
And then we will learn of hash functions
Hash functions are calculated to keep our messages intact.
How do we keep the integrity and authenticity of our files using salted hash and MAC's- Message Authentication Codes and hmacs, a cryptographic hash functions
Basic knowledge
Lots of motivation, security for the unknown, computer skills
Learning Objectives
Understand How encryption works , how cipher algorithm operate , how secret keys are generated
