The Design of Rijndael: AES - The Advanced Encryption Standard

Springer, 2002

In October 2000, the US National Institute of Standards and Technology selected the block cipher Rijndael as the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). AES is expected to gradually replace the present Data Encryption Standard (DES) as the most widely applied data encryption technology.|This book by the designers of the block cipher presents...

Algebraic Aspects of the Advanced Encryption Standard (Advances in Information Security)

Springer, 2006

The Belgian block cipher Rijndael was chosen in 2000 by the U.S. government’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to be the successor to the Data Encryption Standard. Rijndael was subsequently standardized as the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), which is potentially the world’s most important block cipher. In...

Java Cryptography (Java Series)

O'Reilly, 1998

Cryptography, the science of secret writing, is the biggest, baddest security tool in the application
programmer's arsenal. Cryptography provides three services that are crucial in secure programming.
These include a cryptographic cipher that protects the secrecy of your data; cryptographic certificates,
which prove identity...

Internet Security: Cryptographic Principles, Algorithms and Protocols

John Wiley & Sons, 2003

Cryptography is the key to securing the Internet

If every communication network were to use a secure system based on encryption, then viruses, worms and hackers would have a very hard time. Unfortunately, this scenario does not reflect the reality of the Internet world today. However, with security issues becoming more and more important...

The Codebreakers: The Comprehensive History of Secret Communication from Ancient Times to the Internet

Scribner, 1996

"Few false ideas have more firmly gripped the minds of so many intelligent men than the one that, if they just tried, they could invent a cipher that no one could break," writes David Kahn in this massive (almost 1,200 pages) volume. Most of The Codebreakers focuses on the 20th century, especially World War II. But its reach is...

JavaScript Application Cookbook

O'Reilly, 1999

Seasoned Java coders will find the JavaScript Application Cookbook compiled just for them. Written in the same vein as the old-style programmer "toolbox" titles, this book sheds the usual tutorial presentation and simply introduces a series of JavaScript applications you can use on your own sites.

The cookbook begins with...

Introduction to Cryptography with Java Applets

Jones and Bartlett Publishers, 2002

Cryptography is the art of secret writing. It involves transforming information into apparently unintelligible garbage so that unwanted eyes will be unable to comprehend it. This transformation, however, must be done so that it is reversible, so that individuals intended to view the information may do so. This is the traditional use of...
