Sažetak
Due to the increasing use of cryptography in various domains of computing, more and more advanced cryptographic algorithms, protocols, and systems are being developed, the correctness of which largely determines the confidentiality of private and business communication of an increasing number of people. In addition to the complexity of each of the cryptographic components, modern client-server architectures require their precisely executed combinations with other elements of the system that also apply cryptography for various purposes. In order to better understand the role of cryptographic primitives in modern distributed systems, this paper combines the features of basic cryptographic methods together with their applications on the application layer of the Internet. Examples of popular hybrid cryptosystems (Transport Layer Security, Secure Shell, End-to-end Encryption) present the purposes of cryptography in distributed network applications with a brief description of the main ideas used in designing such systems. The paper does not go into technical details and implementations of algorithms but contributes a concise overview of these principles and ideas with practical examples relevant to young software engineers.
