Résumé

Cryptography is not just for specialists. Now every wireless message, wireless phone call, online transaction, and email is encrypted at one end and decrypted at the other. Crypto is part of the job description for network designers, network engineers, and telecom developers. If you need cryptography basics--but dread the thick tomes that are your only other option--help is at hand. Cryptography Demystified puts the fundamentals into a 35-module, learn-by-doing package that's actually fun to use. You must read this book if

6 years of success as a short course for students and professionals works for you
you enjoy hearing the phrase nothing to memorize
ecommerce, email, network security, or wireless communications is part of your bailiwick
cracking cryptography means a jump up the career ladder
the words public-key cryptography, channel-based cryptography, and prime numbers pique your interest
best-practices cryptography is the only secure way for you--and your company--to go
