About This Course
Cryptography is part of Computer Science and offers methods for privacy preservation. And privacy is a critical enabler in our times, where economic transactions take place digitally daily. Some estimate the global e-commerce market to be worth USD9 trillion in size. And blockchains worth over USD1 trillion in aggregate aim to become the operating systems for peer-to-peer commerce in the near future. But how does the underlying technology enable privacy for data storage and transfer work? And can we explain concepts like homomorphic encryption or zero-knowledge proofs in terms that we can all understand conceptually? The course will cover use cases, and explore the opportunities and risks in the applications of cryptography.
