Introduction to Applied Cryptography

CRY302

Bachelor level
30 sessions; 1 session = 90'
Lectures: 12; Tutorials/Lab: 18

MAD101

This course is an introduction to applied cryptography and its relationship to secure systems.
Students will learn making, breaking codes and ciphers. They can have a good understanding
of major concepts in applied cryptography: plain text, encryption, cipher text, block ciphers,
decryption, public-key cryptosystems, hash functions, digital signatures, authentication, key
management, and cryptographic protocols as a part of securing digital systems.

Upon the completion of this course, students will be able to

Describe the key security requirements of confidentiality, integrity, availability, and different
types of security threats and attacks.
Understand the main concepts of symmetric cryptography via classical symmetric (Caesar-type,
Hill, Vigenère, Vernam, …) ciphers.
Understand the main concepts of modern symmetric cryptography (stream, block, Feistel-type
ciphers, DES).
Understand the general structure of Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and the four
transformations used in AES.
Analyze the security of multiple encryption schemes and explain the meet-in-the-middle attack.

Understand requirements for pseudorandom number generators and how they can be
constructed by using block cipher.
Understand the basic principles of public-key cryptosystems (RSA, ElGamal, Diffie-Hellman)

Understand the basic structure of cryptographic hash functions.

Understand the basic principles of message authentication and requirements.

Understand the basic digital signature schemes and algorithms (Elgamal, RSA-PSS).

Students must attend more than 80% of contact sessions in order to be accepted to the final
examination.
- Students are responsible to do all exercises, assignments and labs given by instructor in class
or at home and submit on time
- Use laptop in class only for learning purpose
- Promptly access to the http://cms.fpt.edu.vn for up-to-date course information

point of all labs could be evaluated
and published to students at the
end of the semester

Instruction and schedules for Progress Tests must be

presented in the Course Implementation Plan approved by
director of the campus.
The test must be taken right after the last lectures of required
in class, by instructor
material.
Instructor has responsibility to review the test for students after
graded.

 ITU TERM
Introduce:
Intent: Touch on or briefly expose the students to this topic

Relationship to learning objectives: No specific learning objective of knowledge retention is linked to this t
Time: Typically less than one hour of dedicated lecture/discussion/laboratory time is spent on this topic

Relationship to assignments: No assignments/exercises/projects/homework are specifically linked to this

Relationship to assessment: This topic would probably not be assessed on a test or other evaluation instr

Example: At the beginning of class an example is given of the operation of an engineering system to mot
aspect of the design. But, no explicit discussion of the design or analysis of operation is presented

Example: An ethical problem or dilemma is presented to the students that sets the context for an example
lecture. But, no explicit treatment of ethics or its role in modern engineering practice is presented.

Teach:
Intent: Really try to get students to learn new material
Relationship to Learning objective: is to advance at least one cognitive level (e.g. no exposure to knowled
knowledge to comprehension, comprehension to application, etc.)
Time: Typically 1 or more hours of dedicated lecture/discussion/laboratory time are spent on this topic:

Relationship to assignment: Assignments/exercises/projects/homework are specifically linked to this topic

Relationship to assessment: This topic would probably be assessed on a test or other evaluation instrume

Example: The process and methodology of product design are explicitly presented to and exercised by
students on a project or assignment.
Utilize:
Intent: Assumes the student already has a certain level of proficiency in this topic
Time: No time explicitly allotted to teaching this topic
Relationship to assessment:Tests are not designed to explicitly assess this topic
Example: When working in a laboratory session, students are expected to utilize their skills of
experimentation. But, no further explicit instruction on techniques of experimentation are given.
