Crypto on the Canal


Details
*** UPDATE: This meetup has been moved to Tuesday 15th Sept ***
Our next meetup will be so secure it'll make Fort Knox look like a free for all.
Máté Marjai will share his Tales from the Crypto...
Ever wondered what evolution encryption went through? Or if RSA means Really Secure Algorithm? How does AES work? Why do we need to season when encrypting something with salt and pepper? We use these terms and use encryption but not necessarily know what's behind it. I would like to walk you through the various things that are out there and what does each mean and (roughly) how do they work.
About Me: I'm a (somewhat) regular speaker on Ruby Ireland for the past while, but mainly I'm working with TheProduct.Works to help people and/or businesses lift off their ideas, or take their existing products to the next level.
Also Garret Carragher from FundCog (http://www.fundcog.com) will talk on being a FinTech Phoenix...
We'll hear about how to acquire a multi million dollar startup failure and (slowly) redevelop it to (hopefully) succeed.
About Garret: We'll let Newstalk (http://www.newstalk.com/Kickstart-Your-Business:-FundCog) introduce Garret... "With over fifteen years experience working as a management accountant for Irish multinationals, Garret saw the importance of cash flow as the lifeblood of a business". Now he steps in to give businesses the kickstart they need.
