The field of Cryptography is amongst the most important in all of academia, while also being the most difficult to get right. Being trusted to safeguard applications ranging from cellular communications to digital banking and internet access, this area of research is highly trusted by the masses while paradoxically being…
Public-Key Cryptography is an increasingly important area of mathematics that forms the cornerstone of modern communication. However owing to the growing complexity of such systems, even developers and those that interact with such systems often don’t understand their maths and inner workings, instead relying on high-level abstractions and preexisting implementations…
“I think I can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics” — Richard Feynman
Quantum Computing has always been an enticing topic amongst tech writers and journalists. Its promises to the world of computing — and its difficulty — have enabled the area of research to gain an almost mystical…
Cryptography’s inner workings have long been regarded as exclusive to the realms of experts and mathematicians, its technicalities being largely attributed to magic. Given the complicated nature of the state of modern cryptography, this is understandable. …
