UUG Security Presentation
Friday, March 2nd, 2007I gave my first (and probably last) presentation to the BYU Unix Users Group tonight. I’m finally getting over whatever has made me sick (flu or something), so I was almost completely lucid. I started talking about hash functions, symmetric key encryption, and public-key encryption. I then talked about how those ideas are used in encrypted email, and certifcates. I then gave a very lame explanation of SSL/TLS. After that, we discussed some different attacks, and common security mistakes that people make. Overall, I think it was a good hour-long presentation.
Here’s the slides:
