Rives-Shamir-Adleman cryptosystem
- this page is a stub
RSA, acronym of Rivest-Shamir-Adleman, is a public-key
cryptosystem, described in 1977 by Ron Rivest, Adi Shamir and Leonard Adleman
at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
One of the first public-key systems, it is widely used for secure data
transmission. As it is a relatively slow algorithm, it is commonly used only
to exchange shared encryption keys for a symmetric-key encryption algorithm,
which is then used for bulk encryption/decryption [1].
