This useful handbook elucidates the theory and techniques of cryptography and illustrates how to establish and maintain security under the framework of financial cryptography. It applies various cryptographic techniques to auctions, electronic voting, micropayment systems, digital rights, financial portfolios, routing networks, and more. The book describes systems that work together to protect value or enable transactions; presents theories and technologies dealing with trust, risk, and privacy that establish the global identity of objects and users; and explores how human factors, law, and regulations are crucial to the successful deployment of financial cryptography.

Reviews for Handbook of Financial Cryptography and Security

! As a whole, the chapters are well-written and provide a good introduction, addressing current thinking on a variety of complex and subtle technical areas. Most of the chapters have thorough reference lists, and this is certainly a book that any cryptography library should include. ! [it] contains many interesting ideas showing how, in the twenty-first century, cryptography is more complicated and also more important than just the messages that Alice sends to Bob. --MAA Reviews, January 2011
