Abstract (3/2e)Subject is focused on acquiring basic knowledge in the area of cryptography with secret and public keys, on basic types of symmetric ciphers DES, AES, RC4 and asymmetric ciphers RSA, El Gamal and ciphers based on elliptic curves. Students obtain basic knowledge about management of cryptographic keys, user authentication and authorization data using hash functions and digital signatures. To obtain basic practical experiences students will implement specific cryptografic blocks (primitives) in selected micorcontroller. After completing the course, students obtain overview about cryptography application in the area of embedded security.
Main topics:Information about lessons, exercises and conditions to get credits are available in the document AC.pdf.
Lessons will be given in the KEMT laboratory V002, Vysokoškolská 4.
Topics of final projects (GF128_multiplicationon in C)
Topics of the final exam (winter 2018)
Study materials:
Book Understanding Cryptography written by Christof Paar and Jan Pelzl will be used as the main study material. The book web page contains additional useful information including slides, errata and links to additional practical tools. Information about selected target microcontroller will be provided during next weeks.
MCU for Final Project:
The final project will be implemented on 8-bit
