Cryptography and data protection
AES, RSA and elliptic curves, hashing and password storage, certificates and TLS, and how to protect data at rest, in transit and in use.
- 1 Encryption standards: AES, RSA and elliptic curves, and when each is used
Why real systems combine a fast symmetric cipher with a public-key algorithm, and what the standard names AES, RSA and ECC actually mean.
8 min - 2 Hashing: SHA-256, why MD5 is retired, and how passwords should be stored
What a hash guarantees, why old algorithms like MD5 and SHA-1 were retired, and why passwords need a salt and a deliberately slow hash.
8 min - 3 Public key infrastructure: certificates, certificate authorities and TLS
How your browser decides that a website is really who it claims to be, and what the padlock does and does not promise.
