Gain the skills and knowledge needed to create effective data security systems
This book updates readers with all the tools, techniques, and concepts needed to understand and implement
data security systems. It presents a wide range of topics for a thorough understanding of the factors that affect
the efficiency of secrecy, authentication, and digital signature schema. Most importantly, readers gain hands-on
experience in cryptanalysis and learn how to create effective cryptographic systems.
The author contributed to the design and analysis of the Data Encryption Standard (DES), a widely used symmetric-key encryption algorithm. His recommendations are based on firsthand experience of what does and does not work.
Thorough in its coverage, the book starts with a discussion of the history of cryptography, including a description of
the basic encryption systems and many of the cipher systems used in the twentieth century. The author then discusses
the theory of symmetric- and public-key cryptography. Readers not only discover what cryptography can do to protect
sensitive data, but also learn the practical limitations of the technology. The book ends with two chapters that explore
a wide range of cryptography applications.
Three basic types of chapters are featured to facilitate learning:
* Chapters that develop technical skills
* Chapters that describe a cryptosystem and present a method of analysis
* Chapters that describe a cryptosystem, present a method of analysis, and
provide problems to test your grasp of the material and your ability to implement practical solutions
With consumers becoming increasingly wary of identity
theft and companies struggling to develop safe, secure
systems, this book is essential reading for professionals
in e-commerce and information technology. Written by a
professor who teaches cryptography, it is also ideal for students.
