IT Security plays a vital role in our society. For example, when multiple parties communicate via a mobile phone or chat, or during online shopping, security takes a decisive part in protecting the users, the service operators, and in maintaining public confidence in the system. Cryptography is an essential concept to be implemented in the underlying system. Modern cryptography can be divided into two distinct subareas, symmetric cryptography (where all parties share the same secret key) and asymmetric cryptography (where all parties are in possession of a public key and a private key). We plan to discuss in detail timely topics related to the design and analysis of symmetric cryptographic schemes.
