Cryptology & Number Theory

Course Description

Cryptology is the study of hiding the meaning of messages. Cryptology is an interesting venue for the study of its mathematical underpinnings {number theory, matrix algebra, probability and statistics} and as an opportunity to implement techniques by means of computer programs. We will consider monoalphabetic and polyalphabetic encryptions, public key cryptography, security, and anonymity. Same as CSCI-370. Prerequisite: MATH-221 Discrete Structures. 4 SH.
