Cryptography Pitfalls
Offered By: LASCON via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore common cryptography pitfalls and learn effective techniques to enhance system security in this 46-minute conference talk from LASCON 2016. Discover why implementing cryptography and security measures often falls short, leading to vulnerabilities in seemingly secure systems. Examine outdated primitives and subtle flaws that compromise security. Gain insights into tools and methods for addressing these challenges. Delve into topics such as modern cryptography, random number generators, hash functions, ciphers, authentication, TLS, SSH trust models, and the impact of quantum computing on security. Learn to identify and avoid critical mistakes in areas like checksums, length extension attacks, cipher modes, and certificate chain verification. Understand the importance of proper SSL configuration and library choices. Equip yourself with knowledge to build truly secure systems and restore confidence in your cryptographic implementations.
