An introduction to the basic mathematical techniques involved in cryptanalysis.
It is especially strong in modern forms of cipher solution. This clear and thorough text also provides the reader with 166 specimen codes to solve. This edition for the first time also includes solutions.
Elementary Cryptanalysis: A Mathemat. Approach
Focusing on both private- and public-key cryptographic algorithms, it presents each algorithm either as a textual description, in pseudo-code, or in a C code program.Divided into three parts, the book begins with a
Elementary Cryptography and Cryptanalysis
First, the book provides the mathematical background needed in cryptography as well as definitions and simple examples from cryptography.
