Many of the previous posts are filled with good advice.
The only think I'd like to recommnend is the book Applied Cryptography. That book has very good coverage of the families of cryptographic algorithms you're likely to need/encounter. It can be read to get an overview, or, if you have the desire, it also describes each of the algorithms in detail. It even includes discussion of known attacks against each algorithm. What I learned from that book has served me very well. Kyle
