Hands-On Cryptography with Java

You can learn enough cryptography to solve math problems without having to have a math background

About This Video

• Learn and apply cryptography by focusing on the system's operation, not just mathematical concepts.
• A practical walkthrough that demonstrates how networked systems use encryption to communicate. What the risks are if cryptography is not used
• Clear explanations of how systems work together, not just the individual components, are key.

Any application needs to be secure. Cryptography is used in all software fields. It protects all HTTPS traffic between browsers and encrypts phone storage from prying eyes. It can also hide files within other files using a technique called Steganography. This course is designed for developers who want to create a system that uses cryptography. Developers simply need to connect the pieces to make their system work.

In this course, you will break down the concepts behind cryptography into simple lessons, covering terminology, algorithms, standards, and encryption/decryption techniques. We will also show you how to hack cryptographic systems to bypass their encryption capabilities.

This course answers questions like:

What is cryptography used to do?

What are keys? And where can they be found?

Why does a networked system sometimes give error messages regarding certificate validation?

How do I encrypt something if I need it?

This course will help you recognize cryptographic issues and provide the knowledge necessary to find a verifiable solution.

Audience

This video course is designed for developers whose applications need encryption or integration with an external cryptographic systems. This course requires Java programming knowledge, but not a degree in mathematics.

This course is for Java developers who are creating standard Java applications that require encryption. It is also beneficial to developers who want to understand flaws and security in cryptographic systems.
