Some Security Issues • Can anyone see the messages? • Is it really Alice who is sending the message? • Has the message been tampered with? • Privacy • Authenticity • Integrity
How cryptography helps • Encryption Schemes • Digital Signatures • Message Authentication Codes • Privacy • Authenticity • Integrity
Encryption This can be done in two ways: • Alice and Bob agree on a secret key and use the secret key to encrypt/decrypt messages • Alice encrypts her message using Bob’s public key, send it to Bob. Bob uses his private key to decrypt the message and vice versa.
