New Book: The Kish Cypher

Picture2Dr. Laszlo B. Kish, Texas A&M professor and collaborator of the Smart Grid Center,  has published a new book. Designed to offer a thorough account of the KLJN key exchange system (also known as the Kish Cypher, the Kish Key Distribution, etc.) and its unconditional security, this book explains the scheme’s foundation in classical statistical physics and its superiority to its quantum-based competitors for particular applications, from the perspective of Dr. Kish himself. The full book cover can be viewed and downloaded here.
