The Joy of Cryptography is now available for free online, in its entirety. joyofcryptography.com/
Thanks to @mitpress for supporting open access.
A preview of the first 3 chapters is now at joyofcryptography.com/

Here is a little writeup I prepared for the Computer Aided Security Proofs (CAPS) workshop at Eurocrypt, showing the CPA-security of hybrid encryption in the style of @JoyOfCrypto. It should give you a sense of what the upcoming web edition will be like! garbledcircus.com/kemdem/lef…

I had put off looking at @JoyOfCrypto because "meh, why another cryptography textbook". How wrong I was, it is fantastic. I never thought you could make the OTP interesting. Using it to introduce hybrid arguments is brilliant w/o indistinguishability is so nice.

I think Joy of Cryptography should have two sequels:
- The Ecstasy of Cryptography (Public key)
- The Pain of Cryptography (Simulation and Protocol Security)
I'm not aware of any, but if anyone knows of such a place, hopefully they see this and can speak up.

I started working through @JoyOfCrypto and it’s such a great resource for learning how to write (good) game-based proofs… thanks @GarbledCircus for all the effort to make each proof step extraordinary clear and easy to follow!
The Joy of Cryptography now lives at joyofcryptography.com!

Big announcement from Cloudflare today: we have opened our post-quantum cryptography alpha. We now support Kyber, a post-quantum key agreement in Cloudflare’s reverse proxy product and we want you to help test it with us.

I've been working on some hybrid-proof animations for the next generation of @JoyOfCrypto. Here is the proof of IND$-CPA security for the (r, F(k,r)⊕m) encryption scheme.
