Synopsis

Cryptology is rapidly gaining in practical importance for the protection of communication channels, databases and software; besides its role in computerized information systems (public key systems), more and more applications inside computer systems and networks are appearing, which also extend to access rights and source file protection. The first part of this book deals with codes and their uses (cryptography), whilst the second deals with the process of covertly decrypting a secret code (cryptanalysis). The book presupposes only elementary mathematical knowledge and this, combined with stories from the history of cryptology, makes it suitable for the general reader.
