Developer's Blueprint: Cryptography Beyond Blockchain
Details
Join us for an insightful developer meetup where we will explore the critical components of secure digital communication and identity in the modern digital landscape. This session will provide a comprehensive overview of how key cryptographic techniques and standards are driving innovations in Digital Signatures, Encryption, Non-Repudiation, Public Key Cryptography, Decentralised Identifiers (DIDs), DIDComm, Verifiable Credentials, and Peer-to-Peer (P2P) messaging.
We’ll kick off with a deep dive into Public Key Cryptography, the foundation of secure communication and digital identity. You’ll learn how encryption and digital signatures work together to ensure confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity in digital interactions. We’ll also cover the concept of Non-Repudiation, demonstrating how cryptographic techniques prevent entities from denying their actions, providing a robust method for verifying the origin of data and communications.
The session will then explore Decentralised Identifiers (DIDs) and DIDComm protocols, highlighting how these technologies enable secure, digital interactions without relying on centralised authorities. Our discussion will extend to Peer-to-Peer (P2P) messaging, to explore secure and decentralised communication, removing the need for intermediaries.
Throughout the meetup, we’ll explore the role of Open Standards in promoting interoperability, security, and scalability across these technologies, enabling developers to build cutting-edge applications that are both secure and future-proof. This meetup is tailored for developers, cryptographers, and security enthusiasts who are interested in the technical foundations of digital security.
Whether you're involved in building decentralised systems, securing communications, or creating digital identities, this session will provide you with the knowledge and tools to leverage cryptography and open standards in your projects.
Don't miss this opportunity to deepen your understanding of the technologies that are shaping the future of secure digital interactions.
What you’ll gain:
- Comprehensive understanding of customer identity management best practices
- Strategies to navigate the evolving digital identity landscape that strengthens privacy and boost customer trust
- Provide better forms of authentication and authorization making it safer to exchange data over the internet
This event is ideal for developers of all skill levels who are interested in building privacy-enhancing applications. Don't miss out on this opportunity to learn from our expert speaker and connect with other developers in the community!
