Applied Cryptography: Second Edition: Protocols, Algorithms and Source Code in C by Bruce Schneier is the pre-eminent reference on cryptography. This cryptography classic provides you with a comprehensive survey of modern cryptography. The book details how programmers and electronic communications professionals can use cryptography-the technique of enciphering and deciphering messages-to maintain the privacy of computer data. It describes dozens of cryptography algorithms, gives practical advice on how to implement them into cryptographic software, and shows how they can be used to solve security problems. Covering practical cryptographic techniques, this seminal work shows programmers who design computer applications, networks, and storage systems how they can build security into their software and systems.
