Cryptology Today―An Introduction to Modern Cryptography

Cryptography is a technology with a history spanning thousands of years, but it has undergone fundamental and rapid transformation since the 1970s. Today, the science and technology of cryptography have become deeply embedded in our daily lives in various forms. This is referred to as Modern Cryptography. In this course, we will introduce the key points—in simple terms—regarding the principles and characteristics of modern cryptography, its basic functions, its relationship with social infrastructure, and the functions that will be required of cryptography in the near future. Through this, we will also gain a glimpse into the present and future of the information society, using cryptography as a lens. Although modern cryptography is based on mathematical theory, we will strive to provide explanations that are as intuitive as possible.
