Whether you want to understand the potential of blockchain or examine how mathematics can protect your identity and data online, our Masters in Cryptography will give you the tools to explore and learn about the algorithms and processes that underpin information security in the digital age. As computer science develops rapidly and quantum computing becomes a reality the algorithms that secure our joined up digital world are under stress in a way not seen for over half a century and graduates with the skills we develop are widely sought.
Cryptography is at the intersection of mathematics and computer science and is no longer just the realm of spies and governments. Every private citizen who uses social networking apps has personal data that should be secured while businesses routinely rely on cryptography.
The course is therefore an excellent starting point for those seeking a career in developing and implementing these vital processes and applicants from a range of backgrounds in computer science and mathematics who have an interest in these problems is encouraged. Skills are applicable in:
- Maintaining digital communication platforms;
- Developing and implementing the new cryptographic securities needed for the post quantum world;
- Ensuring secure deployment of applications based on blockchain protocols;
- Delivering goals of integrity and confidentiality in corporate and business worlds.
