Applied Cryptography: Protocols, Algorithms, and Source Code in C, 2nd Edition by Bruce Schneier

Applied Cryptography: Protocols, Algorithms, and Source Code in C, 2nd Edition by Bruce Schneier
Book Description :-
The book details how programmers and electronic communications professionals can use cryptography-the technique of enciphering and deciphering messages-to maintain the privacy of computer data. It describes dozens of cryptography algorithms, gives practical advice on how to implement them into cryptographic software, and shows how they can be used to solve security problems. For Internet developers who need to know about capabilities, such as digital signatures, that depend on cryptographic techniques, there's no better overview than Applied Cryptography, the definitive book on the subject. Bruce Schneier covers general classes of cryptographic protocols and then specific techniques, detailing the inner workings of real-world cryptographic algorithms including the Data Encryption Standard and RSA public-key cryptosystems. The book includes source-code listings and extensive advice on the practical aspects of cryptography implementation, such as the importance of generating truly random numbers and of keeping keys secure.
What's new in the Second Edition
1.  New information on the Clipper Chip, including ways to defeat the key escrow mechanism
2.  New encryption algorithms, including algorithms from the former Soviet Union and South Africa, and the RC4 stream cipher
3.  The latest protocols for digital signatures, authentication, secure elections, digital cash, and more
4.  More detailed information on key management and cryptographic implementations.
