'''[[Cryptographic protocol]]s''' are [[communication protocol]]s which are designed to provide [[computer security|security]] assurances of various kinds, using [[cryptography|cryptographic]] mechanisms. Classic assurances include [[confidentiality]], [[message integrity]], and more recent research includes [[anonymity]] assurances. The term "protocol" is used in a wide sense, to include off-line arrangements such as encryption of [[e-mailemail]] messages.

'''This category is for cryptography protocols themselves, not things pertaining to cryptography protocols!'''
