He will explore cryptographic methods used, as well as the mathematical ideas required for some of these methods \u2013 citing examples from the Roman Empire, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, with the advent of computers, the level of mathematics required for secure encryption has intensified. With this in mind, Panario will discuss current cryptographical methods and potential future developments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Science Caf\u00e9 series is organized by the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/science.carleton.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Faculty of Science<\/a>&nbsp;at 杏吧原创 to discuss relevant issues facing our society and how science can help solve real-world problems.
