Certified Encryption Specialist (E|CES) training

Description

E|CES training focuses on the fundamentals of cryptography and the use of encryption techniques in a variety of contexts. It includes practical case studies, demonstrations of encryption software, and discussions on data security challenges and solutions.

Day 1: Introduction to Cryptography

  • History and fundamental concepts: Exploration of the evolution of cryptography, from ancient methods to modern systems. Discussion of key concepts such as confidentiality, integrity and authenticity.
  • Types of cryptography :
  • Symmetric cryptography: Use of a single key for encryption and decryption.
  • Asymmetrical cryptography: Using a pair of keys (public and private) to secure communications.
  • Public key cryptography: Introduction to public key systems, including how they work and their importance in digital security.

Day 2: Encryption algorithms

  • Study of the main algorithms:
  • AES (Advanced Encryption Standard): Analysis of the characteristics, operation and applications of AES.
  • RSA (Rivest-Shamir-Adleman): Understanding how the RSA algorithm works, including key generation and encryption.
  • Comparison of methods: Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of different algorithms according to specific needs (performance, security, ease of use).

Day 3: Key management

  • Importance of key management: Discussion of the critical role of key management in the overall security of a cryptographic system.
  • Key generation, storage and distribution methods:
  • Techniques for generating secure keys.
  • Strategies for secure key storage (hardware vs. software).
  • Best practices for secure key distribution between users.

Day 4: Cryptography applications

  • Encrypting data at rest and in transit: Analysis of techniques used to protect data in storage and in transmission.
  • Use of cryptography in secure communications: Study of protocols such as SSL/TLS that use cryptography to secure communications on the Internet.

Day 5: Risk assessment, compliance and regulations

  • Identifying threats and vulnerabilities: Methods for identifying potential risks associated with the use of cryptography in different contexts.
  • Best practices for protecting sensitive information: Strategies for ensuring effective protection of critical data.
  • Data protection laws (GDPR, HIPAA, etc.): Review of relevant regulations that frame the use of cryptography in various sectors.
  • Legal obligations regarding the use of cryptography: Discussion of the legal responsibilities involved in implementing cryptographic solutions.
  • IT security professionals: Security analysts, information security managers and system administrators.
  • Developers: Programs wishing to integrate cryptographic solutions into their applications.
  • Compliance officers: Those responsible for ensuring that security policies comply with data protection regulations.
  • Students and young professionals: Anyone looking to acquire skills in cryptography and data protection.
  • Basic IT knowledge: Familiarity with the basic concepts of IT security and IT systems.
  • Previous security knowledge: Experience in the field of information security is recommended, although not mandatory.
  • Understanding cryptographic concepts: Acquire in-depth knowledge of encryption and decryption methods.
  • Application of encryption techniques: Know how to implement encryption solutions to protect sensitive data.
  • Data security risk assessment: Identify potential threats and evaluate the effectiveness of encryption solutions.
  • Compliance and regulations: Understand the laws and regulations governing data protection and the use of cryptography.
