Description: The course «Fundamentals of Information Theory and Cryptography» will introduce you to cryptography.
The course lasts a total of 8 weeks in English language.
The main topics of the course are: the history of cryptography in Russia and the Soviet Union, and what data was top secret until recently; Boolean functions and S-boxes, and how the strength of a cipher depends on the cryptographic properties of a Boolean function; methods of cryptanalysis; some special and most intriguing types of cryptographic Boolean functions: curved functions and APN-functions (almost perfect nonlinear functions).
At the end of the course you have to take a final test that shows your general level of understanding of the material.
