Pre-Test Questions, due November 15

I think we have covered many aspects related to RSA, so I think really understanding how to encrypt, decrypt, and attack encrypted messages using RSA is an important topic. I also think that signatures are an important topic and are relevant in many different fields. They are used in a variety of situations, so knowing how to correctly use them and being aware of forged signatures is a useful skill.

I expect to see a lot of encrypting and decrypting questions, especially with RSA. I also expect to see a couple of signature questions, where we need to sign the message and verify the signature.

I need to study everything a lot. I've missed a week and a half of school for fly-out job interviews since the last exam, so I really need to spend the weekend studying everything we've learned, so that I'm prepared to take the exam on Monday.
