V2a: Symmetric-key encryption: Fundamental concepts (Applied Cryptography 101)

Описание: Unlock the essential principles of symmetric-key encryption in this introductory video, V2a: Symmetric-key encryption: Fundamental concepts, part of the "Cryptography 101: Building Blocks" course by Alfred MEnezes. Designed for computer science students, security engineers, software engineers, and cybersecurity professionals, this free applied cryptography series delves into state-of-the-art encryption methods and techniques.

In this video, we start with basic symmetric-key encryption concepts, exploring foundational ciphers like the simple substitution cipher and the Vigenère cipher. Learn how these early techniques paved the way for modern secure-encryption schemes and understand key adversarial goals and capabilities in the context of cryptographic security. We break down what constitutes a secure-encryption scheme and how it protects against different types of attacks, making complex ideas accessible for those new to cryptography.

Perfect for undergraduates and professionals in security-focused fields, this video provides a solid understanding of encryption basics, which will support deeper learning in applied cryptography.
