Course Description

So do you want to learn cryptography?

and you want to understand it, be able to describe it, be able to use it?

Am I right?

My name is Lukas Vyhnalek, I am the creator of this course (Cryptography from Scratch | Master Encryption in Java).

These days Cryptography is a hot topic, you often read about someone who hacked something, or about new cipher that will be able to secure our communication. And in my opinion in the future Cyber security will be a huge problem. And this course is designed to get your foot in cryptography and cyber security.

What’s stopping you from signing up to today?

·      You don’t have enough time: Not an issue. I designed this course so you can learn everything you need in a few HOURS!

·      You’re still weighing up the value: I plan on keeping this course up-to-date and make it bigger over time. In fact, if you don’t get everything you need from it… you will get your MONEY BACK.

·      You don’t have any previous experience: Seriously, not a problem. This course is expertly designed to teach everyone from complete beginners ( as the name says "Cryptography from Scratch")

Don't know Java?

Don't worry, if you have previous programming experience, the Encryption algorithms are really simple and I promise you, you will be able to rewrite my code from Java to C (or whatever language you use)

And if you don't, still not a problem you can just skip the "CODE" lectures, or you can write me a message and we will figure something out.

The Curriculum

In this Cryptography course we will start off with a little bit of history, then I cover the basics of Cryptography. Then I show you first simple ciphers (Substitution Cipher, Caesar Cipher, Affine Cipher), and by understanding these you should be able to know what cryptography is all about, and what not to do, because not only I explain how these ciphers works. I also explain How to break these Ciphers. So you will also know how cryptographically un-secure cipher looks like and how to break them.

Once you master Basics of cryptography, we can move on to modern cryptography, I explain what is Stream Cipher, and how Xor encryption works.

I also cover the AES encrypting algorithm and RSA (Public key cryptography).

Also by completing this course, you will get Certificate of completion (if you pass all 3 quizzes)

Still not Sure?

Still not sure whether to enroll in this course? Feel free to watch the preview videos. And if you don't what to. There is 30-Day money-back Guarantee, so you have nothing to worry about.

Good but an error in the Affine Cipher should be e(y) = (ax + b) mod m NOT y = a*(x + b) mod m as put in the notes.

By Reg Davies on 4/11/2020

Whilst explanation of the basic stuff was straight forward, the Modern Cryptography was quite heavy in parts especially following the maths (matrix algebra) and where public and private keys went. I am not sure it can be claimed as a Beginner to Master Course.

By Ammar Al-awaidi on 1/4/2020

The information not clear enough to understand and thanks

By Magnus Skeide on 10/9/2019

It is a good introduction to historic ciphers (mostly for fun and background, not really that useful for modern applications) and offers a similar introduction to stream ciphers and modern cryptography. Having "master cryptography" in the title is over stretching in my opinion, as this is basically an introduction with some Java examples to go along. Explanations through out are thorough and with a fitting pace.

By Ryan Harmon on 9/4/2019

Easy to understand and code examples helped make it come together

By Łukasz Kulasek on 8/29/2019

The course is nice, but I feel like it is little bit too short. It should be called an Introduction to Cryptography, as it covers the basics. The Java code is only for simplier cases, so I cannot justify it name 'Mastering Cryptography in Java'.

By Renato Carauta Ribeiro on 1/11/2019

Faltou mais exemplos em java sobre como implementar as criptografias modernas. Esperava que fosse usar a API java.security para criar exemplos.

By Mustafa Jabbar Khudhair on 1/2/2019

Useful course; however, some of principals need to be more explained.

By Marina on 10/10/2018

Si, de momento cumple con mis expectativas

By Sandeep Ranjan on 9/20/2018

So far so good. I have seen the course content. Just wish to see more cryptography algorithms implementation code in java.
