Laboratory classes will involve getting familiar with selected implementations of cryptographic algorithms and protocols. Based on this knowledge and your own experiments, you will be asked to solve a set of simple problems, and prepare a short report including answers to the questions included in the instruction. All exercises can be done at home, at your own speed, or in the ECE computing labs.
