Aims

Cryptography (ISSN 2410-387X) is an international, peer-reviewed open access journal which provides the state-of-the-art forum for original results in all areas of modern cryptography, including secret-key cryptography, public-key cryptography, hash functions, cryptanalysis, cryptographic protocols, and quantum safe cryptography as well as their practice, implementation, application, and related standards. Cryptography will publish high-quality reviews, regular research papers and short communications in all areas of theory and practice of modern cryptography.
