Crypto: How the Code Rebels Beat the Government--Saving Privacy in the Digital Age
by Steven Levy (Goodreads Author)
by Steven Levy (Goodreads Author)
This book is a good primer on PKI and what it means to the digital world we live in. The book is becomming out of date with the current advances in cryptography, but it is a bit of high tech/Ilicon Valley history.
The NSA developed PKI and it was rediscovered by the techies in high tech who took credit for it and put it into all the digital products we use.
It is a story of Clipper Chips, politics, tech, ego, and money.
