The Matasano Crypto Challenges: A collection of 48 exercises that demonstrate attacks on real-world crypto systems and applications. They're derived from weaknesses in real-world systems and modern cryptographic constructions. You are given you enough info to learn about the underlying crypto concepts yourself. When you're finished, you'll not only have learned a good deal about how cryptosystems are built, but you'll also understand how they're attacked. All of the work is done in the programming language of your choice. This is an excellent supplemental learning tool.
