Crypto is Fun!
…Or at least that’s what Mathematics Awareness Month would have you believe. The focus of this year’s awareness campaign is Cryptography and its role in Internet Security. NPR has a good piece on it. Seemed like a good time to do our part to share some good crypto resources. Here’s some linkage:
- Email Newsletters: Bruce Schneier’s Cryptogram and RSA’s Cryptobytes.
- Books: Bruce Schneier’s Practical Cryptography and Applied Cryptography (If you really want to nerd out), and Code Breakers (more historical, more interesting stories).
- Websites: Wikipedia Article, Gary Kessler’s Overview of Crypto
Now, go get your crypto on!
