Cryptology Research Society of India (CRSI) is a scientific organisation that supports research in India on cryptography, data security, and related fields. [1] [2] The organisation was founded in 2001. [2] CRSI organises workshops and conferences about cryptology. [3]
The Cryptology ePrint Archive is an electronic archive of new results in the field of cryptography, maintained by the International Association for Cryptologic Research. It contains articles covering many of the most recent advances in cryptography, that did not necessarily undergo any refereeing process. [1]
It is one of the institutes which comes under the purview of the National Technical Research Organisation. [2] The other one is the National Critical Information Infrastructure Protection Centre. It was envisioned to house simulation laboratories, and digital fortress laboratories for financial security and design.
Cryptography is also a branch of engineering, but an unusual one since it deals with active, intelligent, and malevolent opposition; other kinds of engineering (e.g., civil or chemical engineering) need deal only with neutral natural forces. There is also active research examining the relationship between cryptographic problems and quantum physics.
The Journal of Cryptology (ISSN 0933-2790) is a scientific journal in the field of cryptology and cryptography. The journal is published quarterly by the International Association for Cryptologic Research. Its editor-in-chief is Vincent Rijmen. [1]
The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to cryptography: Cryptography (or cryptology) – practice and study of hiding information. Modern cryptography intersects the disciplines of mathematics, computer science, and engineering. Applications of cryptography include ATM cards, computer passwords, and electronic ...
The development of CrypTool started in 1998. Originally developed by German companies and universities, it is an open-source project since 2001. [2]Currently 4 versions of CrypTool are maintained and developed: The CrypTool 1 (CT1) software is available in 6 languages (English, German, Polish, Spanish, Serbian, and French).
Kerckhoffs viewed cryptography as a rival to, and a better alternative than, steganographic encoding, which was common in the nineteenth century for hiding the meaning of military messages. One problem with encoding schemes is that they rely on humanly-held secrets such as "dictionaries" which disclose for example, the secret meaning of words.
