Book Description
People have been writing in code for hundreds of years. Breaking that code has resulted in many military victories and broken relationships. Learning how to break code can be a fun puzzle activity and lead to a life time of learning. It can also teach the basics of algorithms and computer coding. In this introductory book, kids will learn the most basic of codes and ciphers. 30 introductory puzzles are included for them to crack. Additional, skills that they can practice on their own are included as a bonus. Outside equipment will be needed to fully utilize this book. At a minimum, a pencil will be needed, but other items are recommended within the book. If you have bought the ebook, you will additionally need paper, preferable lined or graph paper. This is the first book in a series to get your child interested in cryptography and on the road to becoming skilled at puzzles and coding. The introductory puzzles are aimed at children ages 8-13. More advanced puzzles are included and may require some adult assistant or be frustrating for younger children. These codes require a good grasp of the alphabet and word recognition. They will not be able to be solved by younger children who cannot read well yet without assistance. Most codes are inspirational or contain snippets of the history of cryptography.

Book Description
Cryptography is hard, but it’s less hard when it’s filled with adorable Japanese manga. The latest addition to the Manga Guide series, The Manga Guide to Cryptography, turns the art of encryption and decryption into plain, comic illustrated English. As you follow Inspector Jun Meguro in his quest to bring a cipher-wielding thief to justice, you’ll learn how cryptographic ciphers work. (Ciphers are the algorithms at the heart of cryptography.) Like all books in the Manga Guide series, The Manga Guide to Cryptography is illustrated throughout with memorable Japanese manga as it dives deep into advanced cryptography topics, such as classic substitution, polyalphabetic, and transposition ciphers; symmetric-key algorithms like block and DES (Data Encryption Standard) ciphers; and how to use public key encryption technology. It also explores practical applications of encryption such as digital signatures, password security, and identity fraud countermeasures. The Manga Guide to Cryptography is the perfect introduction to cryptography for programmers, security professionals, aspiring cryptographers, and anyone who finds cryptography just a little bit hard.

Book Description
Learn how to program in Python while making and breaking ciphers—algorithms used to create and send secret messages! After a crash course in Python programming basics, you’ll learn to make, test, and hack programs that encrypt text with classical ciphers like the transposition cipher and Vigenère cipher. You’ll begin with simple programs for the reverse and Caesar ciphers and then work your way up to public key cryptography, the type of encryption used to secure today’s online transactions, including digital signatures, email, and Bitcoin. Each program includes the full code and a line-by-line explanation of how things work. By the end of the book, you’ll have learned how to code in Python and you’ll have the clever programs to prove it! You’ll also learn how to: - Combine loops, variables, and flow control statements into real working programs - Use dictionary files to instantly detect whether decrypted messages are valid English or gibberish - Create test programs to make sure that your code encrypts and decrypts correctly - Code (and hack!) a working example of the affine cipher, which uses modular arithmetic to encrypt a message - Break ciphers with techniques such as brute-force and frequency analysis There’s no better way to learn to code than to play with real programs. Cracking Codes with Python makes the learning fun!

Book Description
The only guide for software developers who must learn and implement cryptography safely and cost effectively.Cryptography for Developers begins with a chapter that introduces the subject of cryptography to the reader. The second chapter discusses how to implement large integer arithmetic as required by RSA and ECC public key algorithms The subsequent chapters discuss the implementation of symmetric ciphers, one-way hashes, message authentication codes, combined authentication and encryption modes, public key cryptography and finally portable coding practices. Each chapter includes in-depth discussion on memory/size/speed performance trade-offs as well as what cryptographic problems are solved with the specific topics at hand. - The author is the developer of the industry standard cryptographic suite of tools called LibTom - A regular expert speaker at industry conferences and events on this development
