Goal(s)

After the course, the student should be able to:

  • analyze the security needs of a communication and/or computation system at an algorithmic/informational level;
  • find trivial flaws in (in)secure protocol proposals;
  • grasp the design principles and security stakes of cryptographic primitives;
  • implement a cryptographic primitive (hardware or embedded) knowing its specification.

Responsible(s)

Yann KIEFFER

Content(s)

  • The need for cryptographic primitives and protocols;
  • Symmetric cryptosystems: design, make-up, analysis;
  • Security features of protocols;
  • Security assessment of cryptographic protocols;
  • Arithmetic for asymmetric cryptography;
  • Examples of asymmetric cryptosystems;
  • Implementations of cryptographic primitives.

Prerequisites
