Everything about RSA cryptosystem
Algorithm for public-key cryptography
The RSA (Rivest–Shamir–Adleman) cryptosystem is a family of public-key cryptosystems, widely used for secure data transmission. The initialism "RSA" comes from the last-names of Ron Rivest, Adi Shamir and Leonard Adleman, who publicly described the algorithm in 1977. An equivalent system was developed secretly in 1973 at Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), the British signals intelligence agency, by the English mathematician Clifford Cocks. That system was declassified in 1997. Wikipedia →
