Cryptographic Design

Definition

Cryptographic design involves the creation and specification of secure protocols and algorithms for protecting digital information and communications. This process requires selecting appropriate mathematical primitives, constructing secure protocols, and rigorously analyzing their resistance to various attacks. Effective cryptographic design ensures confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity in digital systems, forming the security bedrock of blockchain technology and digital assets. It balances security guarantees with performance and usability considerations.
