DESCRIPTION:
a difficult but complete intro to differential cryptanalysis The main problem with this book is that it is by no means intended for people who are not already well versed in cryptography. It does include an excellent introduction to DES, but the discussion of differential cryptanalysis of DES is difficult to understand for the newbie. Those who are already well versed with cryptography will find this book an excellent resource, however people who are seeking to learn about cryptography would best use the book for their discussion of DES and. A Customer said Essential for the modern cryptologist. The book introduces a cryptanalysis technique which is important for any modern cryptologist; differential cryptanalysis. Requires a *solid* foundation in cryptology and mathematics, not recommended for those with a casual interest in cryptology.. A Customer said Excellent, but very advanced. This is not a book for the novice. If you already have a strong background of the DES and cryptanalysis, this book is invaluable.
This book was written by two of the field`s leading researchers, and describes state-of-the-art research in a clear and completely contained manner.. It describes in full detail, the novel technique of Differential Cryptanalysis, and demonstrates its applicability to a wide variety of cryptosystems and hash functions, including FEAL, Khafre, REDOC-II, LOKI, Lucifer, Snefru, N-Hash, and many modified versions of DES. This book presents the first successful attack which can break the full 16 round DES faster than via exhaustive search. The methodology used offers valuable insights to anyone interested in data security and cryptography, and points out the intricacies of developing, evaluating, testing, and implementing such schemes. It was developed by IBM and adopted as a US national standard in the mid 1970`s, and had resisted all attacks in the last 15 years. DES, the Data Encryption Standard, is the best known and most widely used civilian cryptosystem
