- Synopsis:
-
Information security and secretion of messages in an electronic society requires many technical and legal skills. The technical means is provided through cryptology. Cryptology is concerned with the designing and the breaking of systems for the communication of secret information. The rapid development of computers, the electronic transmission of information, and the electronic transfer of funds contributed to the evolution of cryptology from a military and diplomatic communications to a major concern of business. The subject IBU provides a comprehensive source for students who are interested in protection of information systems and information technologies.
