Handbook of Applied Cryptography Posted by michael on Wednesday September 11, @12:24PM from the complete-from-adelman-to-zimmerman dept. cconnell writes "The Handbook of Applied Cryptography is now available free (for personal use) on the Internet. This is a $100 book. Note also the companion C source code for most of the crypto algorithms, written by James Pate Williams. There is some very cool code here!"
That's "Handbook of Applied Cryptography", arguably a much better book than "Applied Cryptography". It has been available in its entirety from that website for at least two years now. I suppose this is somewhat timely news, by "Slashdot-i-cant- spell-zimmermann dept" standards, anyway. -MW-
