As long as someone wants to keep data safe from another person or group Cryptography will always be needed. However there are good ciphers and bad ciphers to use depending on what you want to use them for. In this talk I will go over the basics and the history of Cryptography to explain why ciphers while trivially broken today were broken at the time where rainbow tables or powerful computers were not available.

I love Cryptography and love working with the Mathematics behind Cryptography and Cryptanalysis and why it works. It has been one of my biggest interests ever since college and I try to read as much as I can about it.
