I am doing B Sc IT. Could you please tell me something about cryptography?
An interdisciplinary subject, drawing from several disciplines, Cryptography is a field of mathematics and computer science concerned with information security and related issues, particularly encryption.
Historically, cryptography was concerned solely with encryption which is a means of converting information from its normal, comprehensible form into an incomprehensible format, rendering it unreadable without secret knowledge. It was used primarily to ensure secrecy in important communications, such as those of spies, military leaders, and diplomats.
In recent decades, the field has expanded beyond secrecy to include techniques for authentication, signatures, interactive proofs, secure computation, steganography, and others. While it is now a tool used within computer and network security, it is also considered a branch of engineering, albeit an unusual one.
Mainly concerned with patterns in language earlier, the emphasis has now shifted, and cryptographers extensively use mathematics, particularly discrete mathematics, including topics from number theory, information theory, computational complexity, statistics and combinatorics - a branch of mathematics concerned with the selection, arrangement, and operation of elements within sets.
I suggest you do a google search on the word cryptography (I just did, and was rewarded with loads and loads of fascinating info on the subject).

The seminar will cover medico legal and hospital management issues with a view to offering solutions to students, doctors, lawyers, hospital executives and organisations to prepare themselves for dealing with healthcare problems effectively. Eminent specialists from the field of healthcare management and medico legal experts will be participating by way of lectures and interactive sessions during the program.
Contemporary topics include Hospital Tourism, Ethical & Legal Issues in Organ Transplant, Corporate Strategies, Hospital Information Systems, Hospital Architecture, Good Finance: Practice & Management, Clinical Forensic Medicine: Scope & Application in Criminal Investigation & Trials, HR Policies relevant to the Healthcare Industry, Credentialing & Accreditation of Specialists & healthcare establishments, Medical Negligence.
Eminent speakers like Harpal Singh MD Fortis, Vishal Bali, Wockhardt, Dr Hari Gautam, former president, National Academy of Medical Sciences Dr Jogarao, director, Pegasus Health Law Consultants, Dr B M Hegde, former VC, MAHE, Dr S M Sapatnekar, director, Haffkins Institute, Dr Sanjay Gupte, senior vice president, FOGSI , Brig Joe Curian, CEO, S L Raheja Hospital, Amitabh Kaant, secretary, Ministry of Tourism, Govt of India, Dr Gopinath Shenoy, medico legal consultant, Madhava Menon, director, National Judicial Academy will present their views on various topics.
The seminar is open to anyone who is interested in aspects of medical litigation and healthcare management. Medical and law students are particularly encouraged to attend the seminar to understand aspects of administration and law that are not taught elaborately in their respective curricula, but are essential for day-to-day practice.
According to Dr Neeta Bhatia, academic coordinator, Symbiosis Institute of Health Sciences, “The Consumer Protection Act and its applicability to the noble profession has transformed the delicate relationship between doctor and patient into that of a buyer and a seller. Medical negligence cases are fairly common today. Both patients as well as doctors seek to interpret the law to their own selfish advantage with a resultant dilution of the very philosophy and spirit in which the law was formulated and meant to be implemented.
“This has necessitated the need to acquire the knowledge of laws appropriate to the medical profession on the part of medical practitioners as also the lawyers who need to have their facts in place when dealing with Medical Negligence cases,” she added.
Among the institutions which have understood this need for professionally trained managers and law savvy doctors in this changing healthcare industry by imparting training to aspiring health care professionals, is the Symbiosis Institute of Health Sciences, she added.
