Email and Usenet lists

  • sci.crypt - The by now almost mythical and still very active Usenet list. Readable among others through the Google groups interface.

Books

  • Handbook of Applied Cryptography - One of the better crypto books available. And you can download it for free (legally) as pdf-files from their web site. Note that there are several different books called "Applied Cryptography".
  • Applied Cryptography by Bruce Schneier. The other good one with the same name.
