Perhaps what you need is something like „Cryptography Engineering: Design Principles and Practical Applications“

Book by Bruce Schneier, Niels Ferguson, and Tadayoshi Kohno.

Pretty outdated. For awhile, it was the best book available, but in 2024 it's probably harmful.

Today, I'd read Serious Cryptography or Real World Cryptography.
