About the book

From the author who made "hacker" a household word comes a groundbreaking book about the most hotly debated subject of the digital age. Crypto concerns privacy in the information age and about the nerds and visionaries who, nearly 20 years ago, predicted that the Internet's greatest virtue--free access to information--was also its most perilous drawback: a possible end to privacy.

Subjects: Geheimschrift, Computer security, Cryptography, Databescherming, Computerbeveiliging, Computercriminaliteit
