@@laitureby the way laith I think you're the right guy to ask this question as it seems you've lots of experience in different fields according to your videos on this KZbin channel.. So an intermediate front end developer freelancer I'm pondering whether i should apply as front end intern or move to learn devops cloud infrastructure and then trying to get an intern job in that field, or maybe go all the way to LLM, machine learning, ai and build a few projects in that field and apply as intern there.. I've interests and curiosity in all the 3 topics I just can't decide which path should I take further haha ... So maybe you can suggest me as a mentor your valuable opinion regarding all that? Thanks again and keep sharing all those awesome valuable videos

Great video! Last and most important thing that you didn’t notice in your video. Root CA Verification. The browser has a pre-installed list of trusted root CA certificates, which it uses to verify the authenticity of the root CA certificate presented by the website. The browser checks whether the root CA certificate presented by the website is signed by a root CA that the browser trusts.

This is absolutely an amazing video. There is one small thing that may be missed by viewers and that is why we are using asymetric encryption to encrypt a symetric key. Why not just use asymetric encryption the whole time? Why do we need to validate a symetric key? The reason is because asymetric encryption/decryption is a computationally expensive operation compared to symetric encryption/decryption. The majority of the data transfer happens with symetric encryption with a key which both the client and sever agree upon, all this crazy asymetric infrastructure is there in order to verify the symetric key was not tampered with. Thanks for this video!

This is an EXCELLENT video on this. I have an Associates degree in cybersecurity & digital forensics (and one in network admin), and still couldn't wrap my mind around this. I also have purchased a 200$ course in cryptography (and it's an excellent course with visuals and labs that I haven't completed cuz it's about 40hrs long). This gets to the basics in about 40min. Love it. One thing I'm still trying to understand is how the shared secret keys are derived and exchanged after verification of authority of the server certificate.

Nice video, but you could have also mentioned that the certificate is very tied to the website's domain name. You could also have said that the CA company checks the credibility of the certificate applicant and whether the domain name has been purchased by the applicant. And a technical detail - CA does not encrypt the applicant's public key with its private key. It only digitally signs the certificate. To digitally sign a document/file - we do not encrypt the entire file or its part with our private key. Because a 1GB file after encryption will give us a 1GB encrypted file. Therefore, we create a hash of this file, which is much smaller. Then we encrypt this hash with a private key and add the encrypted hash (digital signature) to the file. In this case, the document is the applicant's certificate. It should be mentioned that if at least one bit of the file/document changes, its hash will also change - this is how hashing algorithms work. So, it is impossible to replace the website's domain name in the certificate without changing the hash and, consequently, the digital signature. If something in the certificate changes, the CA must sign a new one again. And this is very important, because the browser first of all checks whether the website's domain name entered in the address field is identical to what is included in the certificate sent by that website. Because of that it is sure, that it enters the correct site. But the certificate could be fake. So, in second step it checks the certificate as well. Browser creates a hash from the certificate, uses the CA's public key to decrypt the hash/signature, and compares these hashes. If they are the same, the certificate is OK. This proves that the certificate has not been changed along the way and comes from the owner of the domain/website. And only when the domain name of the website is the same as in the certificate and the certificate is verified positively, only then does the browser trust the website it wants to visit - and a padlock appears. Greets.

@falconx7560 5 ай бұрын

Why do we encrypt the hashes in the first place if the public key is also available so an attacker can also easily decrypt the hash? Even the attacker won't be able to alert the certificate, but why do we go through encryption?

@o0GzxS41BIbyux3vEoNehl5FH 5 ай бұрын

@@falconx7560 To check if the certificate of a given site was signed by a trusted CA. At first, you cannot trust the site you are visiting, that it is the site you want to visit. You need someone third party, whom you trust, who will confirm that this site is the site. Someone who will issue a certificate to this site. This third party is the CA (certificate authority), a kind of 'notary' for electronic certificates, whom we trust (or rather browsers and operating systems). The CA encrypts the hash of the applicant certificate with its private key and adds it to the certificate as a digital signature. And only with the public key of this CA, can this hash be correctly decrypted. If you try to decrypt with a different key - the hash will always be different, incorrect, never will match to the certificate hash calculated during checking. So if you decrypted the correct hash, using the correct public key, you know that it was encrypted with the private key of this CA. Only this CA holds its private key, no one else has it. This is what gives us the certainty that the site's certificate was signed by a trusted, legal, exactly this one CA. What gives us the certainty that the site's certificate is definitely assigned to this domain, to this site you are visiting - the CA ensures this. So from now on you can trust the website you are visiting and you can start exchanging SSL keys to encrypt the communication between you and the website.

@@falconx7560being able to decrypt is not the point. It's not about confidentiality but rather it's about authenticity. If a man in the middle changes the content of the file, he can also calculate a new hash with the same algorithm and replace the hash. So now if you calculate the hash, it matches. But the file is altered. Now let's suppose the hash is encrypted using the private key. A man in the middle changes the content of the file. He calculates a new hash. But now he needs to encrypt the new hash with the private key which he doesn't have. Now you can decrypt the hash using the public key and compare it with the calculated hash and verify that the data isn't modified

@LeonardoBPG 12 күн бұрын

Excellent video! Just an observation, as far as I know the public key can only validate the signature but can't decrypt it. So it's used to validate the certificate issuer. That is why the unencrypted server's public key is present in the certificate, because we can unencrypted anything with the a public key.
