I think it would be interesting to introduce either a full module for Cryptography or have it be a dedicated lesson within an existing module.

I lean towards having it as its own module - it could go over asymmetric vs symmetric cryptography, what the recommended algorithms are, maybe mention which algs are broken and why.

Examples / quiz questions could use recommend Elixir libraries for encryption and such.

Potential addendum lesson could discuss quantum cryptography and NISTs recommendations.

(This idea originated due to @hectorip talk at ElixirConf 2022)
