Serious Cryptography, 2nd Edition - A Practical Introduction to Modern Encryption

Crypto can be cryptic.

This practical guide to modern encryption breaks down the fundamental mathematical concepts at the heart of cryptography without shying away from meaty discussions of how they work. You’ll learn about authenticated encryption, secure randomness, hash functions, block ciphers, and public-key techniques such as RSA and elliptic curve cryptography. 

You''ll also learn:

Each chapter includes a discussion of common implementation mistakes using real-world examples and details what could go wrong and how to avoid these pitfalls.

This new second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated, with a new chapter on Cryptocurrency.

Whether you’re a seasoned practitioner or a beginner looking to dive into the field,
