Information Security and Cryptography: Introduction to Cryptography: Principles and Applications (Paperback)

The first part of this book covers the key concepts of cryptography on an undergraduate level, from encryption and digital signatures to cryptographic protocols.

Essential techniques are demonstrated in protocols for key exchange, user identification, electronic elections and digital cash.

In the second part, more advanced topics are addressed, such as the bit security of one-way functions and computationally perfect pseudorandom bit generators.

The security of cryptographic schemes is a central topic.

Typical examples of provably secure encryption and signature schemes and their security proofs are given.
