Course details
In this course, Dr. Eugene Spafford gives you a foundation in cryptography with an emphasis on why encryption technologies have been so important to the internet and decentralized computing (such as the cloud). Learn about the history of secure communications—from origin to destination—and explore the policy implications of encryption as it relates to privacy, security, authenticity, and integrity. Dive into ways of achieving and maintaining a secure cyberspace, to protect entities and individuals from cybercrime, cyber espionage, and cyberterrorism. Discover cryptography, a basis of many cybersecurity protections. Plus, find out how cryptocurrencies rely on encryption to verify transactions, which involves the exchange of data between private wallets and public ledgers. Encryption ensures the security and safety of these transactions.
