The Math Behind Cybersecurity pages, are designed to help you explore how key areas of mathematics protect our digital lives. You’ll see how modular arithmetic powers encryption, how prime numbers secure online banking, how hash functions preserve file integrity, and how logic and probability uncover digital evidence and risks.
As technology advances, so do the threats to our digital world. Understanding the math behind cybersecurity gives you more than just knowledge — it gives you power. Power to protect yourself, to build safer systems, and to understand how today’s most important technologies really work.
You’ll also try out interactive tools and calculators to test what you learn, making abstract ideas come alive on the screen.
