Introduction to Encryption and Cryptography

بواسطة: edX

Overview

This online course from the Raspberry Pi Foundation explores encryption and cryptography. You'll learn about what encryption is and how it was used in the past, and use the Caesar and Vigenère ciphers. You'll also look at modern encryption, and investigate both symmetric and asymmetric encryption schemes. The course also takes a look at the future of encryption, and includes several practical encryption activities that are also appropriate to use in the classroom.

Syllabus

The course will cover:

A brief look at the history of encryption
The encryption and decryption process, and the importance of keys
The Caesar and Vigenère ciphers
Symmetric and asymmetric encryption schemes
Public-key encryption in the real world
An introduction to quantum cryptography
Practical encryption activities
