Applied Cryptography is THE book to own, but the ICSA has a good algo-by-algo breakdown. I might also recommend checking out the following links: Ritter's Crypto Glossary and Dictionary of Technical Cryptography - for those sometimes nasty terms - http://www.io.com/~ritter/GLOSSARY.HTM Cypherpunk HyperArchive - an extensive archive of the Cypherpunks mailing list, a list devoted to yapping about cryptography (most of the time) http://www.inet-one.com/cypherpunks/ If that isn't enough to get you started, send me an email, and I will hook you up with the motherload of crypto references. ok, Rush Carskadden -----Original Message----- From: sen_ml@eccosys.com [mailto:sen_ml@eccosys.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 16, 2000 12:31 AM To: security@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: SSH1, SSH2, RSA, DES, etc etc From: "Morten Seeberg" Subject: SSH1, SSH2, RSA, DES, etc etc Date: Tue, 16 May 2000 09:13:01 +0200 Message-ID: <00bf01bfbf06$2d28f0b0$deff58c1@sos> > Does anyone know a good link to an explanation of these? not off-hand -- for crypto stuff, the book "applied cryptography 2nd ed" has pretty good descriptions of various algorithms. the handbook of applied cryptography is available via http or ftp as well, but i haven't read that myself. perhaps someone can provide a link. <--snip--> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
