Origionally published in 2008.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 493-500) and index. An introduction to cryptography -- Discrete logarithms and Diffie-Hellman -- Integer factorization and RSA -- Combinatorics, probability, and information theory -- Elliptic curves and cryptography -- Lattices and cryptography -- Digital signatures -- Additional topics in cryptography.

"This self-contained introduction to modern cryptography emphasizes the mathematics behind the theory of public key cryptosystems and digital signature schemes. The book focuses on these key topics while developing the mathematical tools needed for the construction and security analysis of diverse cryptosystems. Only basic filter algebra is requited of the reader; techniques from algebra, number theory, and probability are introduced and developed as required." -- Back cover.
