Description

OpenSSL and Cryptography - Beginners Guide

A complete Guide

That will walk you through the secrets of:

Encryption, symmetric keys, ciphers, digital signatures using openSSL

This course is Hands On. I will teach you the theory and the practical usage.

You will understand how HTTPS works with public key cryptography and how to use Hash functions to keep your files integrity safe

WHY openSSL cryptography ?

Cryptography is everywhere, if you are an ethical hacker, Developer, an IT manager or anyone who hangs around with technology, than this is the stuff that you deal with everyday

In this course you will learn to generate symmetric keys , public keys, certificate request, hash functions and more

You will understand the theoretical concepts of encryption using public and private keys , and use the power of openSSL to apply them

This course is HANDS ON . no power points or fancy words .
