Description: When securing a software application, implementing cryptographic protections is often an unavoidable step. Many software libraries, being open-source or not, provide cryptographic functionalities. This talk will demonstrate that most cryptographic APIs are badly designed and how they tend to increase the likelihood for the developer to use them in a wrong way. A sketch of an ideal crypto API will also be discussed.
