In the fourth video of this five-part series discussing the CIA-NA pentagram, Kips and Jason talk about nonrepudiation.

In simple terms, nonrepudiation means you can't say you didn't do the thing that you did.

Jason and Kip go over some examples of nonrepudiation in both the physical realm and the digital world highlighting that you should always use some type of example when you're asked about a specific term like nonrepudiation.

They also dive deep into digital signatures, public keys, and how these are utilized in software companies and the reasons they are used.

In the end, they discuss some hashing algorithms, how they work, and what are the best practices when using them - emphasizing that you can't have all the security and usability at the same time and you're always going to have to balance these two with each other and find something which works best for you.
