Forensic Science 9: Cryptology Part 2 will focus heavily on cryptology from the past century, while bringing in older techniques which can make hybrid systems more challenging. With each code-making approach, students will have the opportunity to use known techniques and suggest variations to add complexity. I will provide small sections of coded messages, with hints about methodologies used, so that the students can try their hands at deciphering each hidden message. Students will tackle...
Students will gain a greater understanding of complex and unique cryptographic techniques, and will learn to apply what they have learned to real ciphers.
I have taught forensic science for nearly 20 years. My particular area of expertise is the infamous Zodiac case, and I have a book in preparation on the complete solution to the cryptologic creations of the Zodiac. I consider myself a world leader in Zodiac cryptology, which requires an extensive knowledge of multiple areas of cryptanalysis.
