Crypto wars : the fight for privacy in the digital age : a political history of digital encryption / Craig Jarvis - English : CRC Press, 2021 - 440 p. : ill ; 24 cm.

Crypto Wars is the first, and definitive, book of its kind. Cryp toWars offers a history of the half century contest between the US government and its citizens to control digital cryptography, a technology allowing citizens to place their communications beyond the State's reach, thus undermining law enforcement and intelligence capabilities. Thus, CryptoWars is in part a history of how society balances security and privacy, whilst it also explores the power dynamic between citizenry and state, in the digital age.
