Cryptography engineering : design principles and practical applications
Ferguson, Niels
Cryptography engineering : design principles and practical applications - Indianapolis Wiley Publishing 2010 - xxix, 353 p. Includes bibliography and index
Most books cover what cryptography is-what current cryptographic designs are and how existing cryptographic protocols, like SSL/TLS, work. Bruce Schneier's earlier book, Applied Cryptography, is like this. Such books serve as invaluable references for anyone working with cryptography. But such books are also one step removed from the needs of cryptography and security engineers in practice. Cryptography and security engineers need to know more than how current cryptographic protocols work; they need to know how to use cryptography.
