### ["A Mathematical Theory of Cryptography" (1945) - Shannon](http://www.cs.bell-labs.com/who/dmr/pdfs/shannoncryptshrt.pdf)
The original classified memo for Bell Labs that was republished in 1949 as ["Communication Theory of Secrecy Systems"](communication-theory-of-secrecy-systems.pdf).
### ["A Mathematical Theory of Communication" (1945) - Shannon](../information_theory/a-mathematical-theory-of-communication-1948.pdf)
Shannon said that his wartime insights into communication theory and cryptography developed simultaneously and that "they were so close together you couldnt separate them". ["Communication Theory of Secrecy Systems"](communication-theory-of-secrecy-systems.pdf) incorporates many concepts and formulations that also appeared in his 1948 paper.
