How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Trust Crypto Again

Summary
Graham Steel takes a look at some of the cryptographic standards whose security is the subject of speculation and tries to separate rumor from fact. Then he examines some of most widely encountered crypto APIs, evaluating them on two important axes: facilities for flexible, secure key management and provision of modern cryptographic primitives.
