Provides a comprehensive introduction to cryptographic history, current technology, best practices and known attacker techniques. A great deal of material is covered in a relatively compact program.

This course gives is perfect to start learning cryptography, explanations are detailed, topics carefully selected combining theory with real world examples and making emphasis in important details.

Really interesting and comprehensive course. Sometimes really important concepts were glossed over quickly which made it occasionally tricky to follow but then it is tricky subject matter!

It is really interesting and clarifying. It does require much attention to details and taking a lot of notes, however. It focuses on the theory, with practical examples. I sure liked it.

The lectures are very good. Easy to understand and keep on track. But the lecturer could enunciate better. But that is also not a huge issue since pausing and replaying is an option.

Excellent material. As usual with computer science courses, some of the material could be presented a bit more clearly. But I am really happy to finally understand this material now.

I would suggest get intimate with basic computer science before jumping in, also the course will get better if you have knowledge of little bit of probablity, discrete mathematics.

Great intro to a complex topic.
It could be improved by having the programming assignments be:
+ Mandatory
+ More related to actual cryptographic algorithms/libraries (only some are)

Interesting and learned a lot, but probably need a greater foundation in hex and mod math than I had. I suspect there are prerequisites re in the formal program.

Good overall course, it could use an update on some minor points. Theory is a strong part of the course. I hope the Crypto II course will be up one day.

Best cryptography course ever!! Detailed and clear explanation, fun, nice quizzes. But it would be better if the pace was a little bit slower.

Excellent Course to understand the Crypto Construction, Possible Attacks, Semantic Security and pplications of crypto in real world scenarios

sono partito da zero e ora conosco come funziona il mondo base della crittografia, i vari cifrari, i vari tipi di crittografia e attacchi

This course is a great introduction to the world of cryptography. Some questions in the exams were hard to understand at the first try.

Great course. Not easy to sustain the rhythm, I prefer "at your own pace" kind of course, where you have time to dig into the subject.

The contents are presented in a super good way, this is the best way for anyone to learn basic and essential concepts on cryptography.

Very good course with a level accessible without the need to be a mathematical guru. Maybe some videos are a little beat too long.

Above all, the clarity, quality and engaging nature of Professors Boneh's videos made this a great learning experience. Thanks.

Very interesting but sometimes too detailed. Courses often needs good knowledge in mathematics althought there are some reviews.

A bit hard to follow some of the math stuff if you don't have a background it in, but pretty informative course overall

Course is very interesting but, in my opinion, it is a bit theoretical. I would like the course were more practical.

Fantastic course that gives the basic notions of cryptography. Both practical a theoretical tests are very useful.

It is a good course of action but basically it focuses mainly on theoretical part of the Computer's Security.

Great course, but a bit disappointed by the fact that I'll have to do it all over again to get a certificate.

The Course has been more about knowing about and implementing them and has been more helpfull in doing so.

Exceptional Course .. Especially he lectures were clearly explained. But the exercises were a bit tough.

Need some base for the new students on this subject, or recommend some first steps before this course
