Information Security and Cryptology 

There is an urgent need for modern cryptography to find ways to protect sensitive or confidential information. Effective encryption and decryption of data hold the key to security in cyberspace. As such, we need to convert information into an unreadable format so that it can be protected and accessed only those authorized to do so. Cryptography is a crucial instrument to protect information that is communicated using computers. The objective of the book is to provide a basic understanding of the various issues related to information systems security. The book will present an overview of the risks encountered in information systems security, and the tools used for resolving these risks.
