Cryptography I

Cryptography is an indispensable tool for protecting information in computer systems. This course explains the inner workings of cryptographic primitives and how to correctly use them. Students will learn how to reason about the security of cryptographic constructions and how to apply this knowledge to real-world applications. More ...

Week 1

This week's topic is an overview of what cryptography is about as well as our first example ciphers. You will learn about pseudo-randomness and how to use it for encryption. We will also look at a few basic definitions of secure encryption.

We are going to use buildroot to download, configure and compile the kernel.

First, download  and uncompress buildroot: https://buildroot.org/download.html

Go to the directory and:

make qemu_x86_defconfig

make menuconfig

Setting up Qemu with a tap interface

There are two parts to networking within QEMU:

• The virtual network device that is provided to the guest (e.g. a PCI network card).
• The network backend that interacts with the emulated NIC (e.g. puts packets onto the host's network).

Example: User mode network

Emulating a Raspberry Pi with QEMU

Goal: Emulate a Raspberry Pi with QEMU in order to run the Raspbian O/S (based on Debian Linux).

The current setup is not ideal. For one thing, the maximum RAM allowed using the "versatile-pb" firmware is 256 Mb. In addition, only the most basic peripherals, a keyboard and mouse, are supported.

A number of articles have been written on this topic. Most are outdated, and the few recent ones are missing key information.
