Spécialisation Applied Cryptography

Improve Your Career in Computer Security. Master the cryptographic tools and their design principles to apply them for computer security

À propos de cette Spécialisation

This specialization is intended for the learners interested in or already pursuing a career in computer security or other cybersecurity-related fields. Through four courses, the learners will cover the security of information systems, information entropy, classical cryptographic algorithms, symmetric cryptography, asymmetric/public-key cryptography, hash functions, message authentication codes, digital signatures, key management and distribution, and other fundamental cryptographic primitives and protocols.
