Introduction to Cryptology

SOC analysts are on the defensive side of security. Cyber ​​security, by its nature, includes many disciplines. One of these disciplines is the science of "Cryptology". Cryptology is a science that is based on mathematics and has a very important place in cyber security. Every expert in the cybersecurity industry, no matter what their job is, encounters the science of cryptology. For example, a software developer who develops a cyber security product has to use software libraries belonging to the science of cryptology in security operations within the product. The same is true for the SOC analyst. The alerts faced by the SOC analyst may include details about the science of cryptology. Therefore, almost all cybersecurity industry employees, including the SOC analyst, to the executives, must have basic knowledge of cryptology.
