Overview of this book

Cryptography Algorithms is designed to help you get up and running with modern cryptography algorithms. You'll not only explore old and modern security practices but also discover practical examples of implementing them effectively. The book starts with an overview of cryptography, exploring key concepts including popular classical symmetric and asymmetric algorithms, protocol standards, and more. You'll also cover everything from building crypto codes to breaking them. In addition to this, the book will help you to understand the difference between various types of digital signatures. As you advance, you will become well-versed with the new-age cryptography algorithms and protocols such as public and private key cryptography, zero-knowledge protocols, elliptic curves, quantum cryptography, and homomorphic encryption. Finally, you'll be able to apply the knowledge you've gained with the help of practical examples and use cases. By the end of this cryptography book, you will be well-versed with modern cryptography and be able to effectively apply it to security applications.

Preface

In this age of extremely high connectivity, cloud computing, ransomware, and hackers, digital assets are changing the way we live our lives, so cryptography and cybersecurity are crucial.

The changes in processing and storing data has required adequate evolution in cryptographic algorithms to advance in the eternal battle against information piracy.

This book is a good tool for students and professionals who want to focus on the next generation of cryptography algorithms.

Starting from the basics of symmetric and asymmetric algorithms, the book describes all the modern techniques of authentication, transmission, and searching on encrypted data to shelter from spies and hackers. You'll encounter Evolute algorithms with zero knowledge, consensus on the blockchain, elliptic curves, quantum cryptography, and homomorphic search.

The book even gives some focus to attacks and cryptoanalysis of the main algorithms adopted in computer science. The main purpose of this book is to train you to deeply understand this complex topic. Indeed, particular attention has been paid to present examples and suggestions are given to help you better understand the concepts.
