    Conclusion:
    This book was designed to bring cryptography to the general security
    community. You need not have any mathematics background beyond basic
    secondary school algebra. The book will cover the math you need.
    Furthermore, the book includes chapters on topics rarely covered in
    cryptography texts: cryptographic backdoors, military cryptography, and
    applied cryptography.
    The book is really a journey through cryptography, starting with historical
    cryptography and then moving into the mathematical foundations necessary to
    understand modern cryptography. The book then moves on to the symmetric
    and asymmetric algorithms used today. It also includes chapters on Secure
    Sockets Layer (SSL), cryptanalysis, military applications for cryptography, and
    the future of cryptography. The book is replete with links to external sources
    where you can get additional information, particularly in the chapters on
    mathematics and number theory. Each chapter ends with a series of questions
    to test your knowledge. The Appendix includes a set of tutorials for using some
    cryptography tools. These make excellent labs if this book is used as a
    textbook.
