Description:

Cryptography has become a crucial part in cyber security.
Cryptographic primitives are the core building blocks for constructing secure systems. However, due to the mathematically complex nature of cryptography; misunderstandings, misuses, and abuses of cryptographic techniques are very common. In fact, there is a huge gap between the theory of cryptography and its application.
In this workshop, many topics will be covered including private communications, identification/authentication techniques and secure protocols.

What will you learn?

Day 1:
Introduction and History
Security Technics and mechanisms
Symmetric Algorithms— Asymmetric Algorithms—Hash Algorithms
Confidentiality, Authentication, Non Repudiation, Integrity and Key Exchange Mechanisms.
Pkcs Standards
Security Devices and Smart Cards

Day 2:
Certificates—PKI
Authorities (Certification, Enrolment)
LDAP—OCSP—CRL
Certification Policy
Security Recommendations PRIS
Electronic Signature Law

Day 3 (Practice):
Enrollment and Generation of Certificates
Work on Algorithms and Security Envelops (using Visual Crypto Center)

Day 4 (Practice):
Attacks over encryption protocols and algorithms
Proof of concept

Who’s it for?

No particular experience with cryptography is required.
