Explore various symmetric and asymmetric encryption algorithms. Discover the usage of hashing algorithms in everyday systems.

This module explains the importance of cryptography in the online world. It presents some of the building blocks of cryptographic algorithms and explains several symmetric and asymmetric encryption algorithms. It describes the role of hashing functions in today's systems and demonstrates different tools to crack hash values.

What are modules?

A learning pathway is made up of modules, and a module is made of bite-sized rooms (think of a room like a mini security lab).

Hierarchical diagram showing how learning pathways contain modules, which contain individual rooms.
