Cryptography
From Wikiversity
Welcome to the Cryptography
Cryptography can be classified into three areas:
- Classical - before the 20th century, simple substitution and transposition ciphers played major roles
- Modern - mechanized and digitized cryptography came into existance in the 20th century
- Key exchanges - Public Key and Quantum cryptography
- Diffie-Hellman key exchange and RSA in the last few decades has enabled mass secure transmissions and internet transactions
- Quantum Cryptography - As quantum computers come into existance, algorithms and protocols are fast being developed for this new platform.
