The aim of this course is to prepare the students for the design and analysis of any cryptosystem. Therefore the students should be know the analysis of the security level of the cryptosystem and which cryptanalytic attacks are how much efficient on it.

Course Objectives:

At the end of the course the students will have the ability to analyze the security level of the cryptographic solutions and design cryptosystems to resistant for the known cryptanalytic attacks.
