| 252-0407-00L | Cryptography Foundations  | 7 KP | 3V + 2U + 1A | U. Maurer | |
| Kurzbeschreibung | Fundamentals and applications of cryptography. Cryptography as a mathematical discipline: reductions, constructive cryptography paradigm, security proofs. The discussed primitives include cryptographic functions, pseudo-randomness, symmetric encryption and authentication, public-key encryption, key agreement, and digital signature schemes. Selected cryptanalytic techniques. | ||||
| Lernziel | The goals are: (1) understand the basic theoretical concepts and scientific thinking in cryptography; (2) understand and apply some core cryptographic techniques and security proof methods; (3) be prepared and motivated to access the scientific literature and attend specialized courses in cryptography. | ||||
| Inhalt | See course description. | ||||
| Skript | yes. | ||||
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Familiarity with the basic cryptographic concepts as treated for example in the course "Information Security" is required but can in principle also be acquired in parallel to attending the course. | ||||
| 252-0408-00L | Cryptographic Protocols | 5 KP | 2V + 2U | M. Hirt, U. Maurer | |
| Kurzbeschreibung | The course presents a selection of hot research topics in cryptography. The choice of topics varies and may include provable security, interactive proofs, zero-knowledge protocols, secret sharing, secure multi-party computation, e-voting, etc. | ||||
| Lernziel | Indroduction to a very active research area with many gems and paradoxical results. Spark interest in fundamental problems. | ||||
| Inhalt | The course presents a selection of hot research topics in cryptography. The choice of topics varies and may include provable security, interactive proofs, zero-knowledge protocols, secret sharing, secure multi-party computation, e-voting, etc. | ||||
| Skript | the lecture notes are in German, but they are not required as the entire course material is documented also in other course material (in english). | ||||
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | A basic understanding of fundamental cryptographic concepts (as taught for example in the course Information Security or in the course Cryptography Foundations) is useful, but not required. | ||||
