In the movie Sneakers, a brilliant young mathematician invents a device that defeats a public-key encryption algorithm. An interesting fiction, but what if this happened in real life? All of your applications using that algorithm would need to be changed as quickly as possible. This session will show how to best accomplish this by implementing cryptography without hard-coding specific algorithms.
