Women in American Cryptology
Traditionally, the number of women involved in cryptology has been significantly lower than the number of men. However, women have not been completely absent from the field either; they have always been involved in America’s cryptologic history. Cryptology was one of the first areas of study that allowed, even encouraged, women to enter an analytic field.
