Book Description

This book introduces the basic concepts in computer networks and the latest trends and technologies in cryptography and network security. The book is a definitive guide to the principles and techniques of cryptography and network security, and introduces basic concepts in computer networks such as classical cipher schemes, public key cryptography, authentication schemes, pretty good privacy, and Internet security.

• Includes the latest material on emerging technologies, related to IoT, cloud computing, smart grid, big data analytics, blockchain, and more
• Features separate chapters on the mathematics related to network security and cryptography
• Introduces basic concepts in computer networks including classical cipher schemes, public key cryptography, authentication schemes, pretty good privacy, Internet security services, and system security

• Chris Bourke is an Associate Professor of Practice at University of Nebraska–Lincoln.

• Security of Ubiquitous Computing Systems (Gildas Avoine, et al)

  It is to improve and adapt existent cryptanalysis methodologies and tools to the ubiquitous computing framework that lies along four axes: cryptographic models, cryptanalysis of building blocks, security engineering, and security assessment.

• Handbook of Applied Cryptography (Alfred J. Menezes, et al)

  This book is an incredible achievement. If you want to check what problems there were with a proposed system, determine how the variations on a particular algorithm developed, see what research preceded and followed an idea, go to the Handbook.

• The Joy of Cryptography (Mike Rosulek)

  The definitive introduction to all major areas of cryptography: message security, key negotiation, and key management, but in a way that is more accessible than what is "traditional" in crypto. All security definitions are written in a "game-based" style.

• Practical Cryptography for Developers (Svetlin Nakov)

  A modern practical book about cryptography for developers with code examples, covering core concepts, along with crypto libraries and developer tools, with a lots of code examples in Python and other languages.

• Cryptography: An Introduction, 3rd Edition (Nigel Smart)

  This book provides the rigorous detail required for advanced cryptographic studies, yet approaches the subject matter in an accessible style in order to gently guide new students through difficult mathematical topics.

• A Graduate Course in Applied Cryptography (Dan Boneh, et al)

  This book is about mathematical modeling and proofs to show that a particular cryptosystem satisfies the security properties attributed to it: constructing practical cryptosystems for which we can argue security under plausible assumptions.

• Modern Cryptography Volume 1: A Classical Introduction

  This book systematically explores the statistical characteristics of cryptographic systems, the computational complexity theory of cryptographic algorithms and the mathematical principles behind various encryption and decryption algorithms.

• Modern Cryptography Volume 2: Post-Quantum Cryptography

  This open access book covers the most cutting-edge and hot research topics and fields of post-quantum cryptography. The main purpose of this book is to focus on the computational complexity theory of lattice ciphers.

• Fundamentals of Cryptology: A Professional Reference (H. Tilborg)

  This is a thoroughly written wonderful book on cryptography! This excellent book is warmly recommended for mathematicians, computer scientists, for professors and students, and, as a reference book, for researchers in the area of cryptography.

• Introduction to Modern Cryptography (Mihir Bellare, et al.)

  This book introduces the core principles of modern cryptography, with an emphasis on formal definitions, clear assumptions, and rigorous proofs of security. It also presents design principles for widely used stream ciphers and block ciphers.

• Cracking Codes with Python: Building and Breaking Ciphers

  Learn how to program in Python while making and breaking ciphers - algorithms used to create and send secret messages! You'll begin with simple programs for the reverse and Caesar ciphers and then work your way up to public key cryptography, etc.
