Cryptography for Beginners - Full Python Course (SHA-256, AES, RSA, Passwords)
Learn about cryptography in this beginner's course. You'll learn essential techniques like hashing (SHA-256) for verifying file integrity, symmetric encryption (AES), and asymmetric encryption (RSA) using public and private keys. The practical focus of the tutorial involves building a fully functional command-line cryptography tool in Python. Upon completion, you'll have a complete practical toolkit and the skills to safeguard data, secure passwords, and deter tampering.This course was developed by Thanishkka. She is part of Hack Club. Hack Club is a global non-profit organization that creates a community for high school students interested in coding and making things with technology.
Hack Club is free and any teenager can join. Check out their site to get stickers and learn more: https://hackclub.com/
