Consider enrolling in the Mathematics of Secure Communication (MSC) certificate program we offer in the Applied Math Dept of NPS. Also, if you have taken all required courses, fill out this form, get it signed and submit it to the mentioned POC, to get awarded the certificate at graduation. Click the picture below to see the MSC Brochure, or look at some pictures of our graduates: Pic(2024) Pic6 Pic5 Pic4 Pic3 Pic2 Pic1
Take a look at an MSC video on the NPS faculty server:

Our Math Dept library hosts some very rare materials, like Edouard Lucas (1878). "Théorie des Fonctions Numériques - Simplement Périodiques", with Lucas personal signature, dedicated to R. Dedekind (the copy belonged to one of the first members of the department, W.R. Church)
I wrote a book with Thomas W. Cusick: Cryptographic Boolean Functions and Applications, Academic Press - Elsevier, March 2009; with a second edition out in March 2017. If errors are found, we would appreciate if you could send them to either author.
