Latest trends in public-key cryptography
Tvaroh, Tomáš ; Ivánek, Jiří (advisor) ; Palovský, Radomír (referee)
The goal of this thesis is to describe principles of public-key cryptography, introduce and compare latest algorithms for asymmetric encryption and point out their advantages over the most popular cryptosystem - RSA. At the beginning, this thesis describes the evolution of public-key cryptography, its differences compared to symmetric-key cryptography and possibilities of using it for data encryption and digital signature. Mathematical background as well as principles of RSA are described afterwards. At the end, this thesis focuses on the latest algorithms on the basis of eliptic curves and their advantages over the most common algorithms are pointed out. The comparison is then summarized and a recommendation for the best cryptosystem is offered.

Methods for maintaining state information in the HTTP protocol
Polsemov, Anton ; Pinkas, Otakar (advisor) ; Šváb, Ondřej (referee)
This bachelor thesis is focusing on HTTP protocol, its features, and technological aspects. The HTTP protocol is stateless so it is necessary to search for methods to keep status information. These methods are cookies, URL query, session id, http authentication, hidden fields in forms, IP address and additional. Every method has its own strong and weak features. Security of these methods influences a final resolution. Ahead of description of the methods, the thesis is concerning cryptography a describing HTTP cookies in detail. The practical section contains an analysis of online banking in Czech Republic and characterization of trends in this brand. Also, an installation of a PHP5, HTTP Apache server, creation and signification of an OpenSSL certificate is in the last chapter and finally, a simple application of online Banking is created.
