Cryptography with Linux: A Practical Introduction CSIC 1121 6-7:30pm as usual
The goal is to introduce cryptographic concepts, tools, and uses. I'll omit many technical details^ so I can offer an overview of what's available, including: * HTTP Authentication (w/ Apache) * SSL/TLS (w/ OpenSSL and Apache) * X.509 certificates (used for SSL/TLS) * OpenPGP (w/ GnuPG) * Disk Encryption (w/ dm-crypt) * If time permits, SSH and IPSec-based VPN ^ Take CMSC 414 and/or 456 if you'd like to learn more I'll post slides, code, and configs after the talk so you can try this stuff yourself. The examples are necessarily simple, but hopefully they'll give you a nice taste and some idea of what you want to read more about. Cheers, -Nikolas Coukouma
