Description: Click to see full description With 191 Figures, 29 Tables and 16 Color Plates. In today's unsafe and increasingly wired world cryptology plays a vital role in protecting communication channels, databases, and software from unwanted intruders. This revised and extended third edition of the classic reference work on cryptology now contains many new technical and biographical details. The first part treats secret codes and their uses - cryptography. The second part deals with the process of covertly decrypting a secret code - cryptanalysis, where particular advice on assessing methods is given. The book presupposes only elementary mathematical knowledge. Spiced with a wealth of exciting, amusing, and sometimes personal stories from the history of cryptology, it will also interest general readers. Written for: Scientists, students and practitioners in applied mathematics, computer science and information technology, and the general reader Review "The best single book on cryptology today." --Cryptologia (from a review of a previous edition) From the reviews of the fourth edition: "This comprehensive updated edition is divided into two sections. The first part of the book deals with The People and the second concentrates on The Machinery. This volume includes 191 Figures, 29 Tables and 16 Color Plates, plus an Appendix. Friedrich L. Bauer Professor Emeritus of Mathematics and Computer Science has written an outstanding book on cryptology that belongs in your personal library or as a gift for a friend.
