Curriculum
Curriculum Details
Sample courses include:
Cryptography
This module provides an overview of the cryptography field and its related applications. The statistical properties of digital data types such as text, image, and sound are introduced. Basic cryptographic substitution and permutation methods are discussed together with simple software tools. This module presents introduction to symmetric key and public key standards such as Data Encryption Standard (DES), Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), RSA Public-key Cryptosystem, and ElGamal Public-key Cryptosystem. Applications such as data encryption, message authentication, and digital signature are included. Concepts are reinforced with many programming laboratory-exercises throughout the course.
Post Quantum Cryptography
This module covers the foundational principles and techniques of quantum technology, including topics such as basic quantum mechanics; quantum information theory and quantum algorithms such as Grover’s search and Shor’s factoring; quantum error-correcting codes; and quantum computing applications such as quantum encryption and quantum key distribution. We will explore and discuss real world scenarios related to the understanding of quantum technologies, the participants will understand the opportunities and challenges presented by quantum technology and will have a hands-on experience with quantum computers and algorithms using IBM Q Experience quantum devices.
Digital Forensics
