Syventävät opinnot
The course consists of an introduction to RSA and elliptic curve cryptography, and to key agreement protocols and their design principles. In addition, the course contains an introduction to some larger security protocol, for example HIP.

General
The aim of this course is to give a brief exposition of three topics. The first topic deals with the symmetric cipher AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) and public key cryptography based on RSA. These two techniques are used nearly in all the security protocols. Moreover, the first part tries to give a firm foundation on basic mathematical theories which are used in cryptographical constructions. The second topic is devoted to the study of the design of key agreement protocols. These protocols usually form the first part of more general security protocols. Their design is quite delicate and it is easy to make errors which open ways to attacks. The third topic consists of group key agreement protocols or conference protocols as they are also called..

Passing the course
The course can be passed in two ways. The recommended alternative is to take part in the course and its exercises and then going to a course exam. In this exam, the points (0-6) got from the exercises are taken into account when the final grade is determined. The course exam can produce at most 54 points and you can pass the course with 30 points. The second alternative is to take part in a separate exam, where the exercise points are not taken into account.

The course exam date:
1) December 14, 16-19, room A111 (check the room still before the exam!)
