Keeping secrets

Cybersecurity - and in particular secure communication - is a topic that is, to varying degrees, a part of many modern computer science (CS) curricula. Also, students encounter it as a phenomenon of their everyday lives, e.g. when using messengers that advertise encrypted communication. They will thus in most cases have preconceptions about what encrypted communication means that they will bring into the classroom. As in many cases, we expect these conceptions to be incomplete or even inappropriate.
