Summary: A very good combination.
Comment: A good book that combines the expressions of a Mathematician: Burnett and an Engineer: Paine.
The book is descriptively very good with images that today in day is necessary to understand the theoretical ideas better.
The chapters two, three four contain the most didactic description and with an efficient theoretical profile.
RSASecurity made well in publishing this book as official guide as much as makes CISCO with their books.
It is necessary to stand out that they exist other books of RSA that explain particular details about PKI and IPSec, however the book of Burnett and Paine it is distinguished by the clarity of the exposed topics.
I agree with the chapters eight, nine and ten, although they should expose a little but about the kindness of the protocol SET.
It is a very good book that I recommend for those who want to know about the applied cryptography.
A final recommendation: it is certain that today in day the topic of the telecommunications has come being developed with more peak in the world, and although it is certain, the great majority of the books it defines aspects linked to the nets of computers, it is not necessary to leave aside the nets of cellular telephony and the security of the telecommunications, you that it exists now for example RSA Mobile.
For the side of the content of the CD, it is excellent because it offers us information in files pdf of aspects itemized in cryptography.
Lastly, the algorithm I find RSAOAEP that it should be more extended, with more examples and bigger covering, however its inclusion in the book is the appropriate one.
Very good support of RSASecurity to the world.

Summary: Burnett/Paine hit the "nail on the head" with this book
Comment: This is a MUST HAVE book, I have not been able to put it down! the other engineers that I work with are so impressed by the attention to detail and clarity that they are also ordering this as I write. For anyone implementing high level security this is the best all around book I have picked up. The info in the appendix sections would be worth buying alone! It gives Technical leaning/learning folks a great primer (and I learned a lot from it too). If you are looking to clarify security models/risks buy this book!

Summary: Excellent referent written by two experts in the field
Comment: While this book gets 4 stars, you may want to go for the freeware version.
The reason is that while 'The RSA Security Guide to Cryptography' is an excellent referent written by two experts in the field, nearly all of the information in the book and accompanying CD-ROM is available free.
...But for those that don't like the question and answer format of the FAQ, the book may be a better option for them
The accompanying CD-ROM includes the proceedings from the 2000 RSA Conference, all PKCS standards, the RSA bulletins and RSA Crypto Bytes. Also, all this information is free via the RSA website.
... the book while a good read is not cheap. If you don't mind downloading the RSA FAQ and printing it out, you can save a lot of money.
But if you want something with a binding on it, the 'The RSA Security Guide to Cryptography' is a valuable reference.
