Post-Quantum Cryptography
Post-Quantum Cryptography
Post-Quantum Cryptography
We explain the effect of quantum computers on public key cryptography. We describe the mathematics of post-quantum cryptography, including lattice-based, code-based, multivariate, isogeny-based cryptography. ADVANCED
RSA Cryptosystem
Post-Quantum Cryptography
Post-Quantum Cryptography
RSA is the most widely used public key cryptography algorithm, from encryption in HTTPS to digital signatures. We describe RSA encryption and digital signatures algorithms. We demonstrate the Bleichenbacher Million Message attack on RSA and explain how to prevent this attack. We describe the effect of quantum computers on RSA. INTERMEDIATE
Elliptic Curves in Cryptography
Elliptic Curves in Cryptography
Elliptic Curves in Cryptography
An elliptic curve is a type of mathematical curve on a plane. We describe what an elliptic curve is and why it is important in public key cryptography. We explain the classical elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) that is widely used today, as well as the modern post-quantum isogeny-based cryptography. ADVANCED
Quantum Game Theory
Elliptic Curves in Cryptography
Elliptic Curves in Cryptography
Quantum computing is a new form of computing based on quantum mechanics rather than classical mechanics. Quantum game theory is an emerging field in which quantum algorithms are used to find new solutions to game theory problems. We demonstrate several games using a Quantum Virtual Machine including a Coin Flip game and the Prisoner’s Dilemma. ADVANCED
Lattice Cryptography
Lattice Cryptography
Lattice Cryptography
Lattice-based cryptography is the most popular form of post-quantum cryptography and the mathematics and design also accommodates encryption, signatures, hash functions, and newer modern cryptographic protocols like identity-based encryption, homomorphic encryption, and functional encryption. In particular, lattice schemes are the only known mathematics currently that allow secure and practical fully homomorphic encryption. ADVANCED
AES Cryptosystem
Lattice Cryptography
Lattice Cryptography
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is one of the most widely used cryptographic algorithms. We provide an overview of the algorithm, modes of operation, implementations, and security of AES. We demonstrate a simple attack on the AES-ECB mode, and discuss available secure AES modes and implementations. INTERMEDIATE
