Abstract
In the digital age, discrete mathematics is reshaping the ecosystem of cryptography education. This paper integrates discrete mathematics into the teaching of cryptography, cultivates students’ multi-dimensional thinking and problem decomposition ability, and infuses the soul into algorithm construction. Innovatively propose an integrated teaching strategy, break through traditional boundaries, incorporate cutting-edge technologies such as case-based and project-based learning, and build immersive scenarios. Introducing a project-driven teaching method helps students understand the core principles of knowledge through the practical application of cracking real cryptographic security protocols. This approach will enable students to excel in the field of cryptography and contribute innovative insights.
