“Encryption Solutions: Cryptography and the practice of hiding information”       

Cryptography is an essential component of computer security. In cryptography, encryption involves transforming a message so that the content of the message is hidden. Uncovering that content, then, depends on a secret key. While historically encryption was only used for select communications, it now permeates many aspects of everyday life. In this workshop you will learn about the history of cryptography as well as the basic terms, concepts, and algorithms. The focus will be on understanding the general ideas so that you will be able to appreciate the implication involved in choosing between these algorithms. In particular, we will cover symmetric and asymmetric encryption, cryptographic hashes, message authentication codes, digital signatures, and public key infrastructures.
