Cryptography Engineering: Design Principles and Practical Applications

Coverage includes: The Context of Cryptography, Introduction to Cryptography, Message Security, Block Ciphers, Block Cipher Modes, Hash Functions, Message Authentication Codes, The Secure Channel, Implementation Issues, Key Negotiation, Generating Randomness, Primes, Diffie-Hellman, RSA, Introduction to Cryptographic Protocols, Negotiation Protocol, Key Management, The Clock, Key Servers, The Dream of PKI, PKI Reality, PKI Practicalities, Storing Secrets, New Standards, New Patents.Educational ancillaries will be built within the book and will include exercises for each chapter and several recommended course syllabi (a 10-week quarter on cryptography, a 16-week semester on cryptography, 5 weeks of cryptography out of a 10-week quarter on computer security, and so on). New material will reflect technical changes in the field. For example, we will want to describe NISTs new CCM and GCM encryption modes. We will also provide material targeted at helping students develop the security mindset. Kohno will use his courses at the University of Washington, as well as his interactions with other students, to develop and review the contents for this book. The materials will therefore have been field tested with real students. Kohno will also work with Ferguson and Schneier on preparing this new book. A web site will be created in a wiki fashion whereby professors will be invited to submit their most favorite cryptography exams. There will be discussion and analysis of frequency of downloads to determine the best tests which will then be available to all professors.
