Introduction to Cryptography Part 2 of 3 - IPAM at UCLA

Delve into the world of public-key cryptography in this comprehensive lecture from the Graduate Summer School on Post-quantum and Quantum Cryptography at IPAM, UCLA. Explore key exchange mechanisms, public-key encryption techniques, and digital signature protocols with Professor Jonathan Katz from the University of Maryland. Gain insights into the random-oracle model and its applications in constructing public-key cryptosystems. Enhance your understanding with suggested readings from Katz & Lindell's "Introduction to Modern Cryptography (3rd edition)," focusing on sections 6.5, 11.3, 12.1-12.3, and 13.1-13.5. Recorded on July 25, 2022, this one-hour session is the second part of a three-part series, offering an in-depth exploration of advanced cryptographic concepts.
