- Lecture 1, 1/9: General introduction, until slide 30.
Homework:
read Usability
and Psychology, and watch the TED videos of
Bruce Schneier
and Avi Rubin.
- Lecture 2, 8/9: intro continued, until slide 48.
- Lecture 3, 15/9: intro finished; start of symmetric
crypto, with substitution and transposition ciphers, until slide 25.
- Lecture 4, 22/9: symmetric crypto techniques discussed,
and also use of symmetric crypto for confidentiality, until slide 42.
- Lecture 5, 29/9: symmetric crypto for authentication, until slide 50.
- Lecture 6, 6/10: attacks on symmetric authentication protocols, modes for encryption and authentication and beginning of e-Passport example, until slide 70 (alert: slides have been updated starting from slide 57).
- Lecture 7, 13/10: end of e-Passport example, start of hashing, until slide 27. For hashing with SHAKE128 in Python: CompactFIPS202.py and SHAKE.py
