	Cryptology
		Cryptology is an engineering discipline, informed by telecommunications engineering practice, the communications theory aspects of information theory (see Shannon and Weaver, Mathematical Theory of Communication, University of Illinois Press, (about 1949), and Shannon's articles (in 1949?) in the Bell System Technical Journal on communications secrecy, and by the theory of computational complexity.
		Cryptology is often taken as a synonym for cryptography and occasionally for cryptanalysis as well, but specialists in the field have for years adopted the convention that cryptology is the more inclusive term, encompassing both cryptography and cryptanalysis.
		Often referred to as the "definitive" work on cryptology, this is a massive volume that exhaustively covers the history of codes and codebreaking from ancient times through the Cold War.

	Early Cryptology
		By the end of the 15th century, "cryptology had become important enough for most states to keep full-time cipher secretaries occupied in making up new keys, enciphering and deciphering messages, and solving intercepted dispatches" (@ Kahn 108-9).
		The popularity of cryptology was not limited to those who used it for military and diplomatic intelligence.
		The increasing popularity of cryptology in the 16th and 17th centuries is clearly attested to by the proliferation of books on the subject.

	Cryptology - Science Tracer Bullet - Library of Congress
		Cryptology is the art and science of making and breaking codes and ciphers.
		Cryptography is that part of cryptology concerned with the putting of messages into a secret or encrypted form, and cryptanalysis is the reading of encrypted messages without having authorized knowledge of the key that was used in encryption.
		Cryptology was once the domain of the government, especially for military and diplomatic personnel, but it is more and more becoming a mathematical discipline, as mathematics provides the theoretical justification behind the strength of a particular encryption system.

	Cryptology Home Page
		From medieval times when diplomats had to communicate with their rulers, through wartime when orders from headquarters had to be broadcast to the line officers to the present where corporate deals must remain secret until completed, confidentiality of messages remains a very high priority.
		Since the most interesting aspects of cryptology (at least for me) are the methods of enciphering and those of 'cracking' the messages, the rest of this page will emphasis cipher techniques rather than coding.
		In the case of cryptology some references are more historical in nature, tracing the development of the science while others are routed in the mathematical basis of creating or analyzing an algorithm.

		Cryptology is the study of both cryptography and cryptanalysis.
		However, these articles are mostly concerned with cryptology as it has developed in the last 50 years or so, and are more abstract and mathematical than historical.

	What is Cryptology? (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab1.tamu.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Cryptology is the science of coding and decoding secret messages.
		Already, this has generated many contentious situations based on companies and schools monitoring the computer activities and messages of their employees and students, respectively.
		Modern cryptology is based on ideas from theoretical computer science and increasingly Number Theory (the mathematics of integers).

		We had a number of possible topics to choose from and I choose cryptology, because I already had a passing interest in thanks to my attempts to code encryption algorithms for my computer programs.
		The science of cryptology is the science of secure communications, formed from the Greek words kryptós, "hidden", and lógos, "word".
		Much of the terminology of cryptography can be linked back to the time when only written messages were being encrypted and the same terminology is still used regardless of whether it is being applied to a written message or a stream of binary code between two computers.

	What is cryptology?
		Cryptology is the science which incorporates both cryptography and cryptanalysis.
		A cryptographer will use cryptography to convert plaintext into ciphertext and a cryptanalyst will use cryptanalysis to attempt to turn that ciphertext back into plaintext.
		Cryptography and cryptanalysis are the two sides of cryptology.

	What is cryptology? - a definition from Whatis.com
		- Cryptology is the mathematics, such as number theory, and the application of formulas and algorithms, that underpin cryptography and cryptanalysis.
		On the negative side, critics contend that this problem, since it has only recently begun to be implemented in cryptography, has not had the intense scrutiny of many years that is required to give it a sufficient level of trust as being secure.
		This leads us to more general problem of cryptology than of the intractability of the various mathematical concepts, which is that the more time, effort, and resources that can be devoted to studying a problem, then the greater the possibility that a solution, or at least a weakness, will be found.

	DAVID SHULMAN DIES: THE BIBLIOGRAPHER OF CRYPTOLOGY Cryptologia - Find Articles
		David Shulman, the premier bibliographer of cryptology, died 30 October 2004 at Victory Memorial Hospital, Brooklyn.
		Though much has been added to the bibliography of cryptology in the almost three decades since then, for which he compiled a 334-page manuscript addition, no work has superseded his, many of whose entries give locations for many of the early, and therefore rare, works.
		Here Shulman pursued his researches into cryptology, the history of words, the history of baseball, and Steve Brodie, the man who is said to have jumped off the Brooklyn Bridge.

		Cryptology is both of those rolled into one with anything related thrown in, oh I found this on the net a while ago, I thought it was apt:
		That's probably best considering that cryptology alone isn't really worth it but it's practical application to security would make changing the existing forum better.
		I know absolutely bugger all about Cryptology so it will be an interesting forum, for me anyway.

	Cryptography - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cryptography (or cryptology; derived from Greek κρυπτός kryptós "hidden," and the verb γράφω gráfo "write") is the study of message secrecy.
		The study of how to circumvent the confidentiality sought by using encryption is called cryptanalysis or, more loosely, "codebreaking." The field is a rich source of jargon, some of it humorous.
		Some use the English terms cryptography and cryptology interchangeably, while others use cryptography to refer to the use and practice of cryptographic techniques, and cryptology to refer to the subject as a field of study.

		ABSTRACT: A brief survey of cryptology in Elizabethan and Jacobean times and to the Restoration with reference to previous cipher studies.
		But with the European Renaissance and the later English revival of interest in arts and literature cryptology became a separate science at the same time that its practitioners searched for a new universal language.
		The mysteries of cryptology had been well guarded and kept in monasteries or in the secret archives of princes and kings; few of its methods were openly published.
