The application of prime numbers to RSA encryption
نویسنده
چکیده
Numbers that are not prime are defined as composite. From this definition, we can see that a prime number can never be even, since it would have the divisor of 2. Of course, the only exception to that rule is the prime number 2, which has no other divisors but itself. Therefore, we can extend the definition to say that every prime number greater than 2 must be odd. From the above definition, we can also see that a prime number can never end in 0 or 5, since such numbers would have divisors of 5.

A New Factorization Method to Factorize RSA Public Key Encryption
The security of public key encryption such as RSA scheme relied on the integer factoring problem. The security of RSA algorithm is based on positive integer N, because each transmitting node generates pair of keys such as public and private. Encryption and decryption of any message depends on N. Where, N is the product of two prime numbers and pair of key generation is dependent on these prime ...

We show that the inadvertent use of a Carmichael number instead of a prime factor in the modulus of an RSA cryptosystem is likely to make the system fatally vulnerable, but that such numbers may be detected.

متن کاملPrimality Testing
Prime numbers are extremely useful, and are an essential input to many algorithms in large part due to the algebraic structure of arithmetic modulo a prime. In everyday life, perhaps the most frequent use for prime numbers is in RSA encryption, which requires quite large primes (typically≥ 128-bits long). Fortunately, there are lots of primes—for large n, the probability that a random integer l...
متن کاملSerious Security Weakness in RSA Cryptosystem
Nowadays, RSA is the well-known cryptosystem which supports most of electronic commercial communications. RSA is working on the base of multiplication of two prime numbers. Currently different kinds of attacks have indentified against RSA by cryptanalysis. This paper has shown that regardless to the size of secret key and public key, it is possible to decrypt one cipher text by different secret...
