Details

This project aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of common security and encryption protocols, with a focus on Transport Layer Security (TLS). The goal is to equip learners with the ability to evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of these protocols in real-world applications. Participants will conduct a market analysis to understand the prevalence and adoption of TLS, investigate the data overhead associated with encryption, and assess the economic implications and maintenance requirements of using such protocols. Additionally, learners will explore the benefits and pitfalls of TLS, and create a high-level diagram illustrating the secure data flow from an application to a server. Finally, the project will guide learners through the steps required to achieve NIST certification for encryption protocols, providing a practical understanding of industry standards.

Deliverables

The deliverables for this project include a detailed report on the market analysis of TLS and other encryption protocols, highlighting their economic and maintenance aspects. Learners will also produce a high-level diagram showing secure data flow, and a step-by-step guide on obtaining NIST certification. These deliverables will demonstrate the learners' ability to apply theoretical knowledge to practical scenarios in the field of data security.

This project is based on a quantum safe encryption patent that is in National Phase Entry in Canada, US, Australia, and the EU. The project lead has presented this new quantum safe encryption patent to NATO and was just in Poland for a Smart Cities Trade Mission hosted by the Canadian Trade Commissioner Service. He has also applied for a grant project with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) to help stop vehicle theft.
