0 Review of Concepts & Notation -- 1 One-Time Pad & Kerckhoffs' Principle -- 2 The Basics of Provable Security -- 3 Secret Sharing -- 4 Basing Cryptography on Intractable Computations -- 5 Pseudorandom Generators -- 6 Pseudorandom Functions & Block Ciphers -- 7 Security Against Chosen Plaintext Attacks -- 8 Block Cipher Modes of Operation -- 9 Chosen Ciphertext Attacks -- 10 Message Authentication Codes -- 11 Hash Functions -- 12 Authenticated Encryption & AEAD -- 13 RSA & Digital Signatures -- 14 Diffie-Hellman Key Agreement -- 15 Public-Key Encryption
The pedagogical approach is anchored in formal definitions/proof of security, but in a way that I believe is more accessible than what is "traditional" in crypto. All security definitions are written in a unified and simplified "game-based" style. For an example of what security definitions look like in this style, see the index of security definitions (which will make more sense after reading chapters 2 & 4).
