Can I get some recommendations on some textbooks on cryptography, both advanced and introductory? I already have a basic understanding of discrete mathematics.
Pic is the third google image for "cryptography".
koblitz - A Course in Number Theory and Cryptography
>>8595356
Theoretical or applied?
>>8595948
Hmm, I suppose when I made this thread, I was thinking of applied, but both sound interesting. Do you have recommendations for either?
an introduction to mathematical cryptography by pipher, hoffstein and silverman
https://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Mathematical-Cryptography-Undergraduate-Mathematics/dp/1441926747
It's a really good, readable book
