| Summary, etc | We are far removed from the historical situation in which cryptography was used only by militaries and governments. With vast quantities of sensitive information transferred online by individuals, companies, organizations, and nation-states, cryptography is increasingly important to everyone. Most of us, often without realizing, use cryptography on a daily basis. Cryptography: A Very Short Introduction demystifies the art of cryptography by tracing its historical use, explaining how it works, and providing examples of its practical use. This second edition highlights the important advances both in academic cryptography research and in its everyday use. In non-technical language and without assuming advanced mathematical knowledge, Cryptography: A Very Short Introduction introduces symmetric and public-key cryptography. The book then provides a detailed discussion of the design of cryptographic algorithms that are secure against quantum computers and of the development of cryptographic algorithms with advanced functionalities. It also considers new applications of cryptography including blockchain, secure messaging apps, and electronic voting.<br/><br/>https://academic.oup.com/book/59526 |
