Security professionals, you know encryption is essential to protect your data. In this book, learn about the fundamental concepts of cryptography-and then apply them! Explore algorithms for symmetric and asymmetric cryptography and see how to use encryption strategies to enforce storage and network security. Put modern cryptography principles to work in real-world scenarios: cloud environments, cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and more. Build the cryptography skills you need to manage today's security threats!
In this book, you'll learn about:
a. Cryptography Concepts
Master the theory behind cryptography. Walk through the principles, methods, and algorithms that are used to protect your data. Ensure data confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity using techniques such as hash functions, digital signatures, and MAC.
b. Practical Applications
Learn about modern cryptography in practice. From managing encryption keys in the cloud, to securing AI systems and machine learning models, to developing quantum-resistant cryptography algorithms, see how cryptography is used to protect data.
c. Expert Tips, Examples, and Best Practices
Unravel cryptography topics with guidance from an experienced security professional. Practical demonstrations, detailed formulas, and tips and tricks will help you navigate the complex world of data encryption.
Highlights include:
1) Symmetric and asymmetric encryption
2) Hash functions
3) Digital signatures
