09 Public-Key Cryptography
This episode delves into the revolutionary concept of Public-Key Cryptography, also known as asymmetric encryption, and specifically introduces the widely used RSA algorithm.Main Concepts and Theories: Public-key cryptography represents a profound departure from traditional symmetric encryption, which relies on a single shared secret key and methods like substitution and permutation. Asymmetric encryption uses a pair of mathematically related keys: a public key for encryption and a private key for decryption. This innovation emerged to address two critical problems inherent in symmetric systems: the complex key distribution challenge and the absence of a robust mechanism for digital...

Bill Buchanan - Which People Have Secured Our Digital World More Than Any Other?
And, so, if you could pick one or two people who have contributed most to our online security, who would it be? Ron Rivest? Shafi Goldwasser? Ralph Merkle? Marty Hellman? Whitfield Diffie? Neal Koblitz? Well, in terms of the number of data bytes protected, that prize is likely to go to Joan Daemen and Vincent Rijmen, and who created the Rijndael method that became standardized by NIST as AES (Advanced Encryption Standard). If you are interested, Rijndael ("rain-doll") comes from the names of its creators: Rijmen and Daemen (but don't ask me about the rogue "l" at the end).

Bill Buchanan - A Bluffer's Guide to Blockchain: 100 Knowledge Snippets
So, here's my Top 100 snippets of knowledge for blockchain: Blockchains use public key methods to integrate digital trust. Bob signs for a transaction with his private key, and Alice proves this with Bob's public key. The first usable public key method was RSA — and created by Rivest, Shamir and Adleman. It was first published in 1979 and defined in the RSA patent entitled "Cryptographic Communications System and Method". Blockchains can either be permissioned (requiring rights to access the blockchain) or permissionless (open to anyone to use). Bitcoin and Ethereum are the two most popular permissionless blockchains, and Hyperledger is th...

Prediction markets are fascinating financial instruments which have proven to be accurate at making predictions on things like the outcome of elections, geopolitical events and sporting events. But in our heavily regulated financial world, they are the subject of much controversy. In 2013 for instance, a well-known US prediction market, Intrade, was forced to shut down following a civil suit filed by the CFTC. While some people consider prediction markets to be a useful tool for society, others consider them to be a form of gambling, which is one of the reasons why they have been met with such resistance...
