Postgraduate Certificate in Advanced Cryptography.

Advanced cryptography is a field of computer security that is responsible for securing the exchange of sensitive or secret information through the use of advanced encryption and decryption techniques. Its main objective is to protect the confidentiality, integrity and authenticity of data in transit and stored.

Advanced cryptography is based on complex mathematical algorithms that convert normal data into an unreadable and unreadable form for unauthorized persons. Encryption is used to transform the original message into one that can only be read by the authorized recipient, while decryption is used to convert the ciphertext back to normal text.

There are several types of advanced encryption and decryption techniques, the most common being symmetric key cryptography and public key cryptography. In symmetric key cryptography, the same secret (key) is used for both encrypting and decrypting data. The most common symmetric encryption algorithms are DES, AES and Blowfish. In public key cryptography, two different keys (one public and one private) are used for data encryption and decryption. This method relies on mathematical complexity to ensure high data security. The most common asymmetric encryption algorithms are RSA, ECC and Elgamal.

Advanced cryptography has evolved in recent years to address today's security threats. An example of this is homomorphism cryptography, which allows mathematical operations to be performed on encrypted data without first decrypting it. This provides increased security by preventing the exposure of sensitive data and reducing the risk of security breaches. However, advanced cryptography remains a constantly evolving field due to the complexity of increasingly sophisticated threats and attacks that are presented on a daily basis.

Advanced cryptography is a computer security technique that uses complex mathematical algorithms to protect the confidentiality, integrity and authenticity of data. It uses advanced encryption and decryption techniques, such as symmetric key cryptography and public key cryptography, and continues to evolve to address present and future security threats.
