Introduction0:03
Why?4:09
Explore cryptography through a treasure box analogy, learning how encryption and keys transform data into ciphertext to protect files over the internet and in applications with Python.
What is Cryptography?5:17
Learn how cryptography protects information by turning plain text into secret messages that only authorized readers can decrypt, using Python and the cryptography library Fernet.
Symmetric Encryption5:09
Explore symmetric encryption using Python and the cryptography module, where two programs share the same key to encrypt and decrypt messages between Alice and Bob.
Asymetric Encryption5:29
Explore asymmetric encryption with Python by generating a private and public key, using the public key to encrypt and the private key to decrypt messages, and compare to symmetric encryption.
Digital Signatures5:53
Learn to create digital signatures with Python using hashlib and sha256, install hashlib with pip, sign documents, print signatures, and compare signatures to verify equality regardless of file size.
Real World Application6:45
See real world cryptography in Python by hashing passwords for secure databases, using one-way hashes and secret communication, then generate secure random numbers with the secrets module.
