### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A perfect companion for the COMPLETE online courses that are on youtube
  

*by Y***Y on Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2016*

There are dozens of hours of youtube lectures of Christof Paar lecturing in his class in Germany (in English) which I found extraordinarily helpful in really getting into the nitty gritty of Cryptography which I needed on product development.  Picking up Cryptography in bits and pieces from reading articles and watching short videos really doesn't give you a proper overview if you are planning on designing a system using cryptography as there are so many choices and it'snot easy to understand places and situations that may be right for one or the other.Christof's classes are excellent, I bought the book to use as a reference while going through the online courses but you probably wouldn't need it.I do feel that people like Christof should be rewarded for making serious donations of a life long study and in their ability to crystallize the teachings and then put it up on something like youtube FREE.  So be nice and give back.. buy the book, you will find it useful in it's own right.

    Clear, concise, helpful flow diagrams
  

*by M***. on Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2018*

This textbook is hands down one of the best ones that I have encountered in any subject throughout an undergrad and most of a grad degree in math. The chapters are clear and concise, and usually begin with a high level conceptual overview before breaking down component algorithms and supporting math theory. It is easy to read and is fantastic about providing a combination of historical, functional, and mathematical context. It provides examples and explanations without being overly wordy, and is formatted to avoid large sections of block text. The end-of-chapter problems are a mixture of straight algorithmic/mathematical practice as well as ones that challenge you to think about the security and attack vectors for various ciphers (meaning a good blend of true practice and appropriately challenging thought exercises). I would highly recommend this text.

    Great textbook makes things easy to understand
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2019*

This is a great textbook and simplifies many of the algorithms and ideas behind cryptography.  The authors are well published in the area and although they have published many mathematical-based papers, this book tries very hard to simplify those papers and other proofs.  I have not found another book that compares to the ease in descriptions for the area.  The research area is rich in mathematical theory, but the authors do some extra duty work making it nice for readers.  Kudos to the authors!  Well done!  A must buy for those that are interested in the area.
