This book gives readers a deep insight into cryptography and discusses the various types of cryptography algorithms used for the encryption and decryption of data. It also covers the mathematics behind the use of algorithms for encryption and decryption.

This book is designed for a wide audience, including cybersecurity professionals, researchers, students, and anyone with an interest in data security. It begins with an overview of traditional encryption methods, providing a foundation for understanding the principles and challenges that have shaped the field. From there, we dive into the next-generation encryption mechanisms, showcasing the key innovations and emerging trends that are redefining data security.

Each chapter is crafted to blend theoretical concepts with practical applications, offering readers a well-rounded perspective on current advancements and future directions. We explore a range of topics, including quantum cryptography, homomorphic encryption, hardware-based security solutions, and the role of FPGA devices in enhancing encryption methods.

Writing this book has been an incredibly rewarding experience. It has given me the opportunity to reflect on the progress we have made in data encryption and to envision the possibilities that lie ahead. I hope that this book not only educates but also inspires readers to think creatively and critically about the future of data security.

Cryptography is a science of secure communication in the digital era. In cryptography, a cryptographic algorithm, which is a mathematical function, is used to perform encryption and decryption. A cryptographic algorithm works in combination with a key—a word, number, or phrase—to encrypt the plaintext. The same plaintext will produce different cipher-text when encrypted with different keys. The security of encrypted data is based on the strength of cryptographic algorithms and secret keys. Cryptography also embraces cryptanalysis. Hackers use cryptanalysis for analysing and breaking secure communication. The cryptosystem includes cryptographic algorithms and all the possible keys and protocols.
