Languages : en
Pages : 552
Book Description
Explore the fascinating and rich world of Secret Key cryptography! This book provides practical methods for encrypting messages, an interesting and entertaining historical perspective, and an incredible collection of ciphers and codes—including 30 unbreakable methods. In Secret Key Cryptography: Ciphers, from simple to unbreakable you will: Measure the strength of your ciphers and learn how to guarantee their security Construct and incorporate data-compression codes Generate true random numbers in bulk Construct huge primes and safe primes Add an undetectable backdoor to a cipher Defeat hypothetical ultracomputers that could be developed decades from now Construct 30 unbreakable ciphers Secret Key Cryptography gives you a toolbox of cryptographic techniques and Secret Key methods. The book’s simple, non-technical language is easy to understand and accessible for any reader, even without the advanced mathematics normally required for cryptography. You’ll learn how to create and solve ciphers, as well as how to measure their strength. As you go, you’ll explore both historic ciphers and groundbreaking new approaches—including a never-before-seen way to implement the uncrackable One-Time Pad algorithm. Whoever you are, this book is for you! History buffs will love seeing the evolution of sophisticated cryptographic methods, hobbyists will get a gentle introduction to cryptography, and engineers and computer scientists will learn the principles of constructing secure ciphers. Even professional cryptographers will find a range of new methods and concepts never published before. About the technology From the Roman empire’s Caesar cipher to the WWII Enigma machine, secret messages have influenced the course of history. Today, Secret Key cryptography is the backbone of all modern computing infrastructure. Properly designed, these algorithms are efficient and practical. Some are actually unbreakable, even using supercomputers or quantum technology! About the book Secret Key Cryptography teaches you how to create Secret Key ciphers, ranging from simple pen-and-paper methods to advanced techniques used in modern computer-based cryptography. It reveals both historic examples and current innovations. You’ll learn how to efficiently encrypt large files with fast stream ciphers, discover alternatives to AES encryption, and avoid strong-looking but weak ciphers. Simple language and fun-to-solve mini-ciphers make learning serious concepts easy and engaging. What's inside Construct 30 unbreakable ciphers Measure the strength of your ciphers and guarantee their security Add an undetectable backdoor to a cipher Defeat hypothetical ultracomputers of the future About the reader For professional engineers, computer scientists, and cryptography hobbyists. No advanced math knowledge is required. About the author Frank Rubin has been doing cryptography for over 50 years. He holds an MS in Mathematics, and a PhD in Computer Science.

Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 483
Book Description
Thats right. Take it all in. Let it sink in deep, as deep as it can possibly go. Relax. Dont be offended. I come highly recommended. Full-bodied righteous indignation with a twist of the times, past and present you cant resist. Comes with some risks, so guzzle or sip. F_ _ _ with people if f_ _ _ you must, but then dont b_ _ _ _ when things go bust. Things you do leave their tracks, lead back to you, and then bite you back ferociously. Im a Scorpio, an erectile, venomous, crazy eight star child who up to now shunned the limelight but was forced out of the shadows by a man-sized dirty job worthy of Hercules, who though a fine myth, was unavailable so I had to step up like a real man and get the job done. Waste deep in a s_ _ _storm of deceit, betrayal, drugs, rap music, porns deviant sex, scandal, greed, envy, anger, revenge, madness, corruption, and incarceration, I had to wade through some midlife crisis mess I wouldnt wish on anyone. But by the grace of God, Ive gotten a handle on it and have not let go of His hand. After writing The Devil Made Me Do It Too, can I expunge the painful past and with a clean slate and conscience embrace the present and enjoy the future? Im still a work in progress and plan or hope to come to an artful end worthy of my Father. Things you do leave their tracks, lead back to you, and then bite you back ferociously. Better keep my eyes open, tail up poised at the ready with a venomous sting, and God by my side. Hes the only one I trust.

RSPB Guide to Birdsong
Author: Adrian Thomas
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1472955889
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 658
Book Description
An RSPB audio and book guide to the birdsong of Britain's best known bird species. Birdsong is the natural soundtrack to our lives and can evoke a powerful sense of time, place and season. Often profoundly beautiful, it is also the most effective way to discover many birds, and birds' songs and calls reveal much about their lives and behaviour. But identifying which bird is making which sound can seem challenging. With this groundbreaking and easy-to-use RSPB guide, Adrian Thomas helps you learn and identify bird sounds step by step and at your own pace. Whether you are an experienced birdwatcher or just enjoy hearing the birds in your garden, this new guide will open your ears like never before to the amazing songs and calls around you. Together the book and CD combine to create an RSPB-endorsed sound guide to more than 100 songs and calls of 65 garden, woodland and farmland birds, and a reference section describes in detail the sounds of a further 185 birds of Britain and north-west Europe. The 68-minute narrated recording can also be downloaded to listen to on the go, and is accompanied by beautiful colour photographs, annotated sonograms and 'test yourself' sections.
