Now the most used texbook for introductory cryptography courses in both mathematics and computer science, the Third Edition builds upon previous editions by offering several new sections, topics, and exercises. The authors present the core principles of modern cryptography, with emphasis on formal definitions, rigorous proofs of security.
The Concise Oxford English Dictionary (9th ed.) defines cryptography as “the art of writing or solving codes.” This is historically accurate, but does not capture the current breadth of the field or its modern scientific foundations. The definition focuses solely on the codes that have been used for centuries to enable secret communication. But cryptography nowadays encompasses much more than this: it deals with mechanisms for ensuring integrity, techniques for exchanging secret keys, protocols for authenticating users, electronic voting, cryptocurrency, and more. Without attempting to provide a complete characterization, we would say that modern cryptography involves the study of mathematical techniques for securing digital information, systems, and distributed computations against adversarial attacks.
