1 Cryptography Overview and PGP - Fort Collins, CO Copyright © XTR Systems, LLC Cryptography Overview and Pretty Good Privacy Instructor: Joseph DiVerdi, Ph.D., MBA

2 Cryptography Overview and PGP - Fort Collins, CO Copyright © XTR Systems, LLC Cryptography Basic Parts Plaintext –Human-readable or software-readable message Ciphertext –Plaintext message after modification to obscure it Algorithm –Mathematical operation used to convert plaintext into ciphertext and vice versa Key –Piece of static data which makes an algorithm's transformation unique

3 Cryptography Overview and PGP - Fort Collins, CO Copyright © XTR Systems, LLC Key-Based Encryption

4 Cryptography Overview and PGP - Fort Collins, CO Copyright © XTR Systems, LLC Keys A key is a (very long) series of numbers –It is data only not a program A program is required to encrypt data –Uses a key to create unique encrypted data –Uses a key to "lock" unique encrypted data A program is required to decrypt data –Sometimes the same program used to encrypt –Uses a key to "unlock" unique encrypted data –Can't use just any old key, must be the right one
