This page is the "channel wiki" for the IRC channel ##crypto on irc.freenode.net. It has the same purpose as a FAQ. Here we can collect links to relevant things like beginner introductions and other things.
Wikipedia
Wikipedia has more than 1000 articles on cryptography, many of them really good. Here are some examples:
- Cryptography - The main article.
- Block cipher modes of operation - How to properly use block ciphers.
- Cryptographic hash function
- XTEA and RC4 - Two easy to implement ciphers with code examples.
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.
