Understanding blockchain and cryptocurrencies : A primer for Implementing and developing blockchain projects
Discusses and explains topics such as hashing, Merkle trees, nodes, mining, proof of work and proof of stake, consensus mechanisms encryption, vulnerabilities, and much more. The structures and principles described will be relevant for developers and managers alike, and will be demonstrated through relevant examples throughout the text.
Theory of Cryptography ; 4th Theory of Cryptography Conference, TCC 2007, Amsterdam, The Netherlands, February 21-24, 2007, Proceedings
TCC 2007, the Fourth Theory of Cryptography Conference, was held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, from February 21 to 24, 2007, at Trippenhuis, the headquarters of the Royal Dutch Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW). TCC 2007 was sponsored by the International Association for Cryptologic Research (IACR) and was organized in cooperation with the Cryptology and Information Security Group at CWI, Amsterdam; the Mathematical Institute, Leiden University; and DIAMANT, the Dutch national mathematics cluster for discrete interactive and algorithmic algebra and number theory. The General Chair of the conference was Ronald Cramer.
Security and Privacy in Digital Rights Management ; ACM CCS-8 Workshop DRM 2001, Philadelphia, PA, USA, November 5, 2001. Revised Papers
This book about the ACM Workshop on Security and Privacy in Digital Rights Management is the ?rst scienti?c workshop with refereed proceedings devoted solely to this topic. Digital Rights Management technology is meant to provide end-to-end so- tions for the digital distribution of electronic goods. Sound security and privacy features are among the key requirements for such systems. the program committee selected 15 papers for presentation at the workshop. They cover a broad area of relevant techniques, including cryptography, system architecture, and cryptanalysis of existing DRM systems. Three accepted papers are about software tamper resistance, an area about which few scienti?c articles have been published before. Another paper addresses renewability of security measures. Renewability is another important security technique for DRM systems.
Progress in cryptology – INDOCRYPT 2007 ; 8th International Conference on Cryptology in India, Chennai, India, December 9-13, 2007, Proceedings
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Cryptology in India, INDOCRYPT 2007, held in Chennai, India, in December 2007. The papers are organized in topical sections on hashing, elliptic curve, cryptoanalysis, information theoretic security, elliptic curve cryptography, signature, side channel attack, symmetric cryptosystem, asymmetric cryptosystem, and short papers.
Pro ADO.NET 2.0
This book takes a new approach, focusing on the practical tasks like connecting to the database, retrieving data, and working with transactions, rather than rehashing much of the MSDN documentation. Pro ADO.NET 2.0 offers the deep and much-needed practical understanding, viewpoint, and knowledge developers are seeking. This book explains what is available in ADO.NET by associating it with the need to solve a practical problem and better architect an application, rather than mugging up the hundreds of classes and properties available in the framework.
Information security and privacy ; 12th Australasian Conference, ACISP 2007, Townsville, Australia, July 2-4, 2007, Proceedings
The book covers a wide array of key aspects in information security. The papers are organized in topical sections on stream ciphers, hashing, biometrics, secret sharing, cryptanalysis, public key cryptography, authentication, e-commerce, and security.
Fast software encryption ; 15th International Workshop, FSE 2008, Lausanne, Switzerland, February 10-13, 2008, Revised Selected Papers
Constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 15th International Workshop on Fast Software Encryption, FSE 2008, held in Lausanne, Switzerland in February 2008.The 26 revised full papers presented together with 4 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 72 submissions. The papers address all current aspects of fast and secure primitives for symmetric cryptology and are organized in topical sections on SHA collisions, new hash function designs, block cipher cryptanalysis, implementation aspects, hash function cryptanalysis, stream cipher cryptanalysis, security bounds, and entropy.
