Dorothy Denning springs immediately to mind ;-)...
Seriously though, how does one stereotype a cryptographer in order to
easily represent him/her in graphics? Drug dealers are easy: Shadowy
character all in black carring guns and scaring small children,
terrorists also, camoflague wearing rifle carriers, but cryptographers?
Maybe someone wearing a random noise camoflague suit and carrying heavy
assult weapons such as a 3.5" plastic disk with a copy of PGP on it...
