Students will gain comprehensive technical expertise in security and privacy, with special emphasis on the cryptographic principles underlying essential tools for security professionals. They'll understand that cryptographic solutions demand thorough comprehension of their characteristics for correct implementation, not just superficial usage. The curriculum covers algorithm development, practical implementation, and discrete mathematics for cryptography before exploring widely-used cryptographic methods and systems. Additionally, students will examine both technical and societal dimensions of privacy, where legal frameworks continue to balance individual privacy protections against the advantages of extensive digital data repositories, while technological approaches contribute to ongoing legal and social discussions.
