News: Exam results and grading can now be found below. News: since one tutorial (and lecture) was cancelled, we decided to only require 5 tutorials out of 10. News: To prepare for exams, you might want to check the exam questions from the previous year (exam on 10.12.03.) News: second exam time added (17th May). (15.04.04) This is an introductory course on cryptology and data security. We plan to teach the course according to textbook, and our preliminary plan is to cover the first 12 chapters, and spend the last few lectures for "new and recent" material. It is also possible that we will have some famous cryptographer giving a minicourse in May. (In 2002, it was Phil Rogaway, in 2003, it was Vincent Rijmen.)
General Information
RequirementsIf you have not done so yet, please take the course Mat-1.128 Discrete Mathematics during Spring 2004. This will be mandatory. We will assume that you have taken the course, since any course on cryptography requires the knowledge of main results from this course. The only exception is made to the students who will be at the HUT for their last study year, for whom T-79.159 is mandatory, and who have not taken Mat-1.128 yet. Such individuals please contact the responsible teacher before 22.01.2004 by email, stating all relevant information --- your wish may be granted. For you it is possible to take Mat-1.128 in parallel, since it runs this spring. Lecture Notes(Slides in English; Postscript and/or PDF; future lectures without slides may change; new slides will appear here asap; consulting 2003 slides is highly recommended)
Tutorial exercises and solutions(in English, PDF format)
Exercise session corresponding to lecture number X will be held 8 days after the lecture (i.e., Thursday the next week). The corresponding tutorial will be published not later than on Monday. It will be verified during the exercise session how many students have done the homework. (It will not be possible to submit the tutorial later!) It will be necessary to pass 5 of the 10 tutorials to get to the exam. (Not 6 from 11 as announced initially.) Back to menu.
