Cryptography Fundamentals for Analysts: Building Awareness Around Security Requirements

Eventually, every analyst encounters information security — and it’s often one of the most challenging areas when it comes to identifying and aligning requirements. And once we’re involved in implementing those requirements, we need to dive into the technical details to avoid feeling completely lost.

This workshop offers a practical introduction to the basics of cryptography: symmetric and asymmetric encryption, cryptographic keys, digital signatures, and certificates.

We’ll explore how these concepts are applied in real-world scenarios such as authentication, traffic encryption, and the storage of sensitive data.

This workshop is aimed at systems and business analysts who work with security requirements or participate in their implementation.
