An edited collection of papers which provide a comprehensive introduction to the use of cryptographic algorithms in data network security. The coverage includes both conventional and public-key encryption and the most important algorithms, including DES, triple DES, RSA, and IDEA. The text further discusses issues concerning authentication and digital signatures and explains the use of public-key encryption and secure hash functions in this context. It concludes with a presentation of the practical uses of cryptographic algorithms in some key internetworking applications. Includes a glossary, a list of acronyms, and an annotated bibliography, but no index. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
