Crypto/security is cool and amazing, but it's also one the least flashy parts of Computer Science. Purely in terms of overall reputation I don't think people view crypto as "magic..." a more accurate analogy is "plumbing."
The Magic comes more from things like games and computer graphics and deep learning.
