Welcome!
Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. Here are pointers for a quick start. You'll probably want to know how to get started as an author. Just look at CZ:Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. Be sure to stay abreast of events via the Citizendium-L (broadcast) mailing list (do join!) and the blog. Please also join the workgroup mailing list(s) that concern your particular interests. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forums is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any constable for help, too. Me, for instance! Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun! Hayford Peirce 18:03, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
You are very, very welcome
Sounds like you have some very relevant background. I'm competent in COMSEC/INFOSEC, general SIGINT, and secure communications from the protocols and equipment side, but I know my limitations as a cryptologist. User: Sandy Harris is probably our leading expert on the crypto itself.
We have a cryptography article and a lot of subarticles, but the higher-level cryptology definitely needs improvement. A draft outline I suggested is on its talk page. Howard C. Berkowitz 18:27, 16 February 2009 (UTC) (Computers, Military, Engineering editor)
