Cryptography From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search The German Lorenz cipher machine, used in World War II for encryption of very high-level general staff messages Cryptography (or cryptology; derived from Greek krypt³s "hidden," and the verb γράφω gr¡fo "write" or λεγειν legein "to speak") is the practice and study of hiding information. In modern times, cryptography is considered to be a branch of both mathematics and computer science , and is affiliated closely with information theory computer security , and engineering citation needed .

Up to The World Wide Web Virtual Library Up to Francis Litterio's Home Page Cryptography There are two kinds of cryptosystems: symmetric and asymmetric . Symmetric cryptosystems use the same key (the secret key) to encrypt and decrypt a message, and asymmetric cryptosystems use one key (the public key) to encrypt a message and a different key (the private key) to decrypt it. Assymetric cryptosystems are also called public key cryptosystems. Symmetric cryptosystems have a problem: how do you transport the secret key from the sender to the recipient securely and in a tamperproof fashion? If you could send the secret key securely, then, in theory, you wouldn't need the symmetric cryptosystem in the first place because you would simply use that secure channel to send your message. Frequently, trusted couriers are used as a solution to this problem. Another, more efficient and reliable solution is a public key cryptosystem, such as RSA , which is used in the popular security tool PGP sci.crypt and sci.crypt.research

Or does security provide some very basic protections that we are naive to believe that we don't need? During this time when the Internet provides essential communication between tens of millions of people and is being increasingly used as a tool for commerce, security becomes a tremendously important issue to deal with. There are many aspects to security and many applications, ranging from secure commerce and payments to private communications and protecting passwords. One essential aspect for secure communications is that of cryptography, which is the focus of this chapter. But it is important to note that while cryptography is

Cryptography The expansion of the connectivity of computers make ways of protecting data and messages from tampering or reading important. Even the US courts have ruled that there exists no legal expectation of privacy for email. It is thus up to the user to ensure that communications which are expected to remain private actually do so. One of the techniques for ensuring privacy of files and communications is Cryptography. What follows is a list of freely available crypto systems, with comments based on my limited reading in books and on the net.

Online Resources Introduction to Cryptography Preface By encryption, we mean a process of converting information to a disguised form in order to send it across a potentially unsafe channel. The reverse process is called decryption. Using strong encryption techniques, sensitive, valuable information can be protected against organized criminals, malicious hackers, or spies from a foreign military power, for example. Indeed, cryptography used to be almost exclusively a tool for the military. However, in moving into an information society, the value of cryptography in everyday life in such areas as privacy, trust, electronic payments, and access control has become evident. In this way, the field of cryptography has broadened from classical encryption techniques into areas such as authentication, data integrity, and non-repudiation of data transfer. In the following, basic terminology and the main methods of cryptography are presented. Any opinions and evaluations presented here are speculative, and neither the authors nor SSH can be held responsible for their correctness - although every attempt is made to make sure that this information is as correct and up-to-date as possible.

Press Resources Cryptography Overview People Projects Maps and directions Overview Cryptography (from the Greek for "hidden writing") is the ancient science of encoding messages so that only the sender and receiver can understand them. Cryptography is now available to everyone thanks to the development of modern computers, which can perform more mathematical operations in a second than a human being could do in a lifetime. An ordinary PC can produce codes of such complexity that the most powerful supercomputer using the best available attack algorithms would not break them in a million years. Cryptography is used to secure telephone, Internet, and email communication and to protect software and other digital property. It may soon usher in a new age of money with electronic commerce. The Cryptography and Anti-Piracy group within Microsoft Research serves multiple roles: Researching new cryptographic methods and applications.

Z cryptography - Cryptography is the science of information security. The word is derived from the Greek kryptos , meaning hidden. Cryptography is closely related to the disciplines of cryptology and cryptanalysis . Cryptography includes techniques such as microdots, merging words with images, and other ways to hide information in storage or transit. However, in today's computer-centric world, cryptography is most often associated with scrambling plaintext (ordinary text, sometimes referred to as cleartext) into ciphertext (a process called encryption ), then back again (known as decryption ). Individuals who practice this field are known as cryptographers. Modern cryptography concerns itself with the following four objectives: Confidentiality (the information cannot be understood by anyone for whom it was unintended) Integrity (the information cannot be altered in storage or transit between sender and intended receiver without the alteration being detected) Non-repudiation (the creator/sender of the information cannot deny at a later stage his or her intentions in the creation or transmission of the information) Authentication (the sender and receiver can confirm each other?s identity and the origin/destination of the information)

CRYPTOGRAPHY MADE EASIER THE CRYPTOGRAPHY INTRODUCTION AND GUIDE Cryptography is often seen as a 'black art': something OTHERS understand but YOU need. This of course need not the the case at all. Yes, there are some complex concepts to embrace, but basic understanding need not be a trial. This web site is designed to help you understand the basics of cryptography, presenting the main ideas in simple language. It also provides access to a series of resources to help you apply, and implement, cryptographic solutions. It will hopefully prove to be invaluable to all who use it - both beginners and seasoned professionals. Why Have It? What Is It? Key Management Why do organizations use cryptography? What are the core benefits they seek? Why not use some other approach? This section answers to these questions and sets the scene for further study. So you need cryptography, but are not entirely sure what it is, or generically how it works? This section explains cryptography in its most basic form. With the aid of a diagram it embraces encryption, decryption and key management, and explains other uses of the practise. Key management is one of the most critical aspects of a cryptographic system. This is covered in this section.
