More Information

The following links are to additional information about class topics.

Main references for TPM Information:

• See the TCG web site

Main reference for concepts and models used in modern cryptography:

• Introduction to Modern Cryptography by Mihir Bellare and Phillip Rogaway - used for the UCSD course CSE 207.

Additional good references for cryptography:

• Lecture Notes on Cryptography by Shafi Goldwasser and Mihir Bellare - used for an MIT summer course in cryptography (1996-2001).
• Handbook of Applied Cryptography - the entire CRC Press book is available online for free. This is a reference book and focuses on algorithms and techniques rather than models and proofs, but it's an excellent reference.

Additional good references for computer security:

• Security Engineering by Ross Anderson - one of the best books on applied computer security, which is now available online for free (but you can still buy a printed copy too!)
• Computer Security History Project - Seminal Papers (Classic papers in computer security, including Anderson, Bell-LaPadula, Orange Book, Multics papers, and more) [Link no longer working - was http://seclab.cs.ucdavis.edu/projects/history/]
