Applied Cryptography (VIHIA030)

This course is lectured at the Aquincum Institute of Technology, Budapest . However, it has been accredited and got a course identifier VIHIA030 at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics. This page is the course homepage, which contains practical information related to the course and the lectures, consequently, this page is always under construction.

Objectives

The objective of the course is to give an introduction to the basics of cryptography, to explain how basic building blocks work, and to demonstrate how secure systems can be engineered by properly using them. Besides the theoretical background, we use lot of illustrative examples and show practical applications. In addition, besides the technical details, we give an outlook to the legal and business aspects of using cryptography.
