Digital fortressis cyber-thriller novel by Dan brown.This is the 3rd
novel of Dan Brown am reading after "Da vinci Code" and "Angels
and Demons"."Digital Fortress" doesn't look to have the edge or
the constant action found in "The DaVinci Code" or even "Angels
& Demons." But overall its a good fast paced adventurous novel.
This thriller revolves around the quest for an unbreakable encryption
algorithm's passkey and the extent to which people would go to in
order to acquire it.This unbreakable encryption algorithm called as
Digital Fortress was written by ex-NSA cryptographer Ensei Tankado
who had blackmailed to make it available for public use if the NSA
didn't make TRANSLTR's(incredible code-breaking machine which
can even turn the best computer encryption software useless)
existence known to the general public.The plot takes a twist when
Ensei the only person who knew the Pass-key to break digital
fortress died .
Only the end of the novel let me down.It was like watching some
Hollywood action movie's climax, it was too artificial.
I found the book fast-paced and engaging.If you like cyber-thrillers
I highly recommend you pick this book up and read it.
