Back in 1978, when I was chairman of the Data Processing Department at SUNY/Farmingdale, which is located in the heart of the electronics and aerospace area on Long Island, I created a course in computer security. Since the intensive program's objective was programming efficiency [36 credits in computing and knowledge of at least two programming languages were required for a two-year degree], I decided to include several aspects of cryptography. Doing this helped to create student interest and also it provided an opportunity for mystudents to do some special programming.read more
