Lecture

Applied Cryptography: Hash Functions

Description

This lecture covers the concept of hash functions, which transform messages into fixed-length outputs without the need for a key. It explains the security properties of cryptographic hash functions, including pre-image resistance, second pre-image resistance, and collision resistance. The instructor also discusses the practical uses of hash functions in digital signatures, password storage, file integrity verification, blockchain technology, and message authentication codes.
