Features: Cryptography involves the concepts, definitions, and constructions of computational systems for solving communication confidentiality problems. The design of a cryptographic system must be based on a solid foundation. This book provides a systematic and rigorous discussion of this fundamental issue: defining cryptographic goals and solving new cryptographic problems using existing tools. The entire book focuses on basic mathematical tools: computational hardness, pseudorandomness, and zero-knowledge proofs, etc. The emphasis of this book is on clarifying basic concepts and proving the feasibility of solutions to cryptographic problems, rather than focusing on describing specific methods.
