Course Description
Short Course | 18 hours | 1.8 CEUs | $2,295
In this course, students learn to deploy cryptographic tools to secure their applications and services. Students will create secure communications in public channels using public-key cryptography. They will also explore methods of authenticating messages to ensure that they haven’t been tampered with in transit. And lastly, they will learn how to use digital signatures and zero-knowledge proofs to let others verify the messages sent through your services.
PSE400 is the third course in the Product Security Tamper Resistance Certificate. To complete the certificate students will also enroll in ESD100, & PSE300. Click on each course link for more details and to add to cart.
