Keep pace with the fast-moving field of cryptography and network security with Cryptography and Network Security. Stallings' Cryptography and Network Security introduces you to the compelling and evolving field of cryptography and network security. The purpose of this text is to provide a practical survey of both the principles and practice of cryptography and network security.

The first part of the text explores the basic issues to be addressed by a network security capability and provides a tutorial and survey of cryptography and network security technology. The latter part deals with the practice of network security, covering practical applications in use to provide network security.

The 8th Edition captures innovations and improvements in cryptography and network security, while maintaining broad and comprehensive coverage of the entire field. In many places, the narrative has been clarified and tightened and illustrations have been improved based on extensive reviews by instructors in the field.
