Beschreibung

Cryptography is concerned with the conceptualization, definition and construction of computing systems that address security concerns. The design of cryptographic systems must be based on firm foundations. This book presents a rigorous and systematic treatment of the foundational issues: defining cryptographic tasks and solving new cryptographic problems using existing tools. It focuses on the basic mathematical tools: computational difficulty (one-way functions), pseudorandomness and zero-knowledge proofs. The emphasis is on the clarification of fundamental concepts and on demonstrating the feasibility of solving cryptographic problems, rather than on describing ad-hoc approaches. The book is suitable for use in a graduate course on cryptography and as a reference book for experts. The author assumes basic familiarity with the design and analysis of algorithms; some knowledge of complexity theory and probability is also useful.

Über den Autor

Oded Goldreich is a Professor of Computer Science at the Weizmann Institute of Science and an Incumbent of the Meyer W. Weisgal Professorial Chair. He is an editor for the SIAM Journal on Computing, the Journal of Cryptology, and Computational Complexity, and previously authored the books Modern Cryptography, Probabilistic Proofs and Pseudorandomness, Computational Complexity: A Conceptual Perspective, and the two-volume work Foundations of Cryptography.

Zusammenfassung

Cryptography concerns constructing computing systems that address security concerns. The design of cryptographic systems must be based on firm foundations and this book focuses on the basic mathematical tools needed: computational difficulty (one-way functions), pseudorandomness and zero-knowledge proofs. The emphasis is to clarify fundamental concepts, and to demonstrate the feasibility of solving several central cryptographic problems. The book is suitable for graduate cryptography courses and as a reference for experts, and assumes basic familiarity with design and analysis of algorithms; knowledge of complexity theory and probability would also be useful.
