I'm not really a cryptographer, I just play one on the internet.

Seriously, I'm just a programmer and mathematician interested in puzzles and information security. I don't have any kind of formal crypto training, but I've picked up a few things here and there over the years. Topics I'm particularly interested in include protocol design and analysis, classical ciphers and information-theoretically secure crypto techniques such as one time pads and secret sharing schemes.

Please consider any (original) code I post to Stack Overflow (and other Stack Exchange sites) to be released under CC-Zero unless stated otherwise. You may do whatever you want with it and don't have to credit me in any way, although of course that would be nice.
