Cryptology

This book equips readers with an access control logic they can use to specify and verify their security designs. Throughout the text, the authors use a single access control logic based on a simple propositional modal logic. The first part of the book presents the syntax and semantics of access cont..

This book explores the depth and breadth of the field of cryptology. It begins by tracing the development of cryptology from inception to modern-day practice. The remainder of the book explores the modern aspects and applications of cryptography, covering symmetric- and public-key cryptography, cryp..

Assuming little previous mathematical knowledge, Error Correcting Codes provides a sound introduction to key areas of the subject. Topics have been chosen for their importance and practical significance, which Baylis demonstrates in a rigorous but gentle mathematical style. Exercises are placed with..

Introducing the reader to the basics of coding theory, this text covers practical and theoretical computing and problem-solving. Number theory and combinatorics are treated from scratch and coding theory is discussed without the use of group theory or finite fields...

David Kahn is universally regarded as the dean of intelligence historians. Recounting the desperate efforts to gather information during World War II and the Cold War, he provides insight into the dark realm of intelligence and code that will fascinate cryptographers, intelligence personnel, and the..

Based on the research experience of the authors, this book provides a theoretical structure of fundamental number theory and algebra knowledge supporting public-key cryptography. The authors integrate the results and thinking from more than 20 years of research and teaching, bridging the gap between..

Most available cryptology books primarily focus on either mathematics or history. Breaking this mold, Secret History gives a thorough yet accessible treatment of both the mathematics and history of cryptology. Requiring minimal mathematical prerequisites, the book presents the mathematics in suffici..

This book covers an extensive range of topics related to visual cryptography techniques and secure image sharing solutions. It addresses sharing multiple secrets and visual cryptography schemes based on the probabilistic reconstruction of the secret image, including pictures in the distributed share..
