Defensive Security event.
Proposed sessions for this event:
- Cryptography for Developers by Adhokshaj Mishra
The bachaav session is targeted for developers and security professionals who want to learn how to use cryptography properly in software systems. The session will focus on popular cryptographic algorithms and their uses like AES, RSA, SSL, Digital Signatures etc. Common pitfalls, and attack vectors will also be covered with possible countermeasures. In short, this will be an "all rounder" session with primary focus on defense
The following topics will be covered
- Introduction to cryptography, cryptanalysis and cryptology
- Components of a general cryptosystem
- Symmetric and assymetric cryptosystem
- Classical ciphers and their attack vectors
- Modern ciphers (AES, RSA) and their attack vectors
- Cryptographic Backdoors
- SETUP Attack
- Covert Channels
- Detecting weakened cryptosystem
- Countermeasures
Requirements
- Any decent laptop with LINUX, GNU C++ Compiler, GNU Debugger and Crypto++ libraries installed and configured properly.
Prerequisite Knowledge
The attendees are supposed to have a solid background in following subjects
- Programming in C++
- Mathematics till High School (basic algebra, matrices etc)
