Students will learn about credit cards, third-party payment gateways (PayPal and Stripe), mobile payment systems (Alipay, WeChat Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay using NFC), and cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC)), and more in this course. They will gain insight into the security mechanisms and cryptographic protocols used to protect these systems, such as encryptions, TLS/SSL, HTTPS, digital signatures, hash functions, and digital certificates. Selected examples will be used to demonstrate how these technologies are used in these e-payment systems.
Finally, how various e-payment systems, including existing bitcoin and the upcoming CBDC, will interact with Web3 and the metaverse will be discussed. Students will also learn about e-payment and cryptocurrency-based technology regulatory concerns and governance, as well as impending industry developments.
This course is part of the FinTech Technologies I Professional Certificate.

Side-Channel Security: Developing a Side-Channel Mindset (edX)

Computer Science

Side channels are everywhere. They are incredibly powerful and have disrupted the world in the last years, especially with attacks like Meltdown and Spectre that impacted most computers on the planet. You also have seen side channels and used them already yourself. In this course, you will learn and practice the side-channel mindset and how to spot side channels in the real-world and how to use them in non-technical and semi-technical settings.

Between Physical and Sofware: Fault Attacks, Side Channels, and Mitigations (edX)

Computer Science

Fault attacks (sometimes also called active side-channel attacks ) are a very powerful means that goes beyond just leaking secrets from an application or device, to actively manipulating it. We will look at fault attacks that can be triggered from software, namely Rowhammer and Plundervolt. We will also learn that some transient-execution attacks have some similarities to fault attacks. You will implement some of these attacks yourself and learn how they are mitigated.
