I've just started a crypto newsletter: CRYPTO-GRAM is a free monthly
email newsletter on cryptography from Bruce Schneier (author of
Applied Cryptography, inventor of Blowfish, general crypto pundit
and occasional crypto curmudgeon).

You can subscribe to CRYPTO-GRAM:

        on the WWW, at http://www.counterpane.com/crypto-gram.html

        by sending e-mail to crypto-gram-subscribe@chaparraltree.com

In the May issue:

        The Secret Story of Non-Secret Encryption. The story
        behind the British claim that they invented public-key
        cryptography first.

        Advanced Encryption Standard. How the government
        is replacing DES.

In the June issue:

        Side Channel Attacks. What's the big idea behind the
        recent press announcements about breaking smart
        cards by analyzing the power line?

        Risks of Key Recovery, Key Escrow, etc. Why
        implementing a FBI-style key recovery scheme will
        do more to hurt national security than simply letting
        people communicate.

Other regular features include:

        News. Links to the interesting crypto stories.

        War Stories. There are security lessons to learn
        from all over, not just from computer geeks.

        Resources. Summaries of the good Web resources
        on privacy, security, and encryption.

We understand and respect your right to privacy. You are

You should also know that we would not sell, rent or share
