The RSA procedure is different from other encryption decryption procedure because it have two different keys for encryption and decryption. The RSA algorithm is an asymmetric encryption algorithm. In 1978 Ron Rivest, Adi Shamir, and Leonard Adleman introduced this encryption method. It is an asymmetric method because it has a public key and a private key. We will see two aspects of the RSA cryptosystem, firstly generation of key pair and secondly encryption-decryption algorithms.[5] Generation of RSA Key Pair : Each person or a party who desires to participate in communication using encryption needs to generate a pair of keys, namely public key and private key. The process followed in the generation of keys is described below − Generate the…show more content…
In a secret-key system, by contrast, the secret keys must be transmitted (either manually or through a communication channel) since the same key is used for encryption and decryption. A serious concern is that there may be a chance that an enemy can discover the secret key during transmission.[6] Another advantage is if any person try to decrypt the message it is quite impossible to break the encryption during his life time. There are some limitations of RSA public key cryptography also. Fake public-key algorithms. The user should not worry if public key leak, but need to consider someone takes another's place by counterfeiting published false public key, so it should be possible to widely publish the right key to public to prevent counterfeiting. The RSA security depends on the difficulty of factoring large numbers, but is equivalent to factoring has not been proved theoretically, because there is no proof of cracked RSA will need factorization. If there is an algorithm can fast decompose a large number, so the RSA algorithm's security would be threatened. In addition, the computational ability of the computer to continuously improve, the cost of computer to reduce, the parallel technology of the computer to develop, then attack the RSA algorithm will get huge growth ability. The RSA encryption and decryption algorithm need a lot of calculation and the speed is slowly. [7] Complexity of the key creation. Because of the RSA algorithm is limited by the prime and efficiency of generating primes is relatively low, so it is difficult to achieve a secret
