Overview
This cybersecurity book for beginners and experts alike offers an engaging exploration of cryptography’s role in our everyday lives.
Matthew Green, professor at Johns Hopkins and creator of the Zcash cryptocurrency, and Yehuda Lindell, Head of Cryptography at Coinbase, demystify the technologies that keep our information safe behind the scenes during common digital interactions, including:
- Tapping to pay for your morning coffee
- Texting friends or emailing coworkers
- Shopping on your favorite website
- Sharing your location with GPS apps

Along the way, the authors discuss the potential downsides of cryptography, noting its use in hiding criminal activities and the ongoing debate around government surveillance.
