Modern Public Key Cryptography (SS 2021)

Content

• Advanced Cryptographic Primitives
• Public Key Cryptography (public key encryption schemes, signature schemes, commitment schemes, zero knowledge, …)
• Provable Security (security models, basic ideas of reductionist security proofs)

 

In this course you will get to know the details of many public-key cryptosystems;

… be able to show the security of common cryptographic schemes by constructing a security proof;

… learn more about advanced aspects of cryptography and cryptographic research.
