Summary
The book begins by considering simple monoalphabetic substitution ciphers (additive, multiplicative, affine and keyword) and then moves through a polyalphabetic substitution cipher (the Vignere Square) and on to polygraphic substitution ciphers (including Hill's system). Finally the RSA Public Key Encryption System is introduced along with several...
