Asymmetric cryptography or public-key cryptography is cryptography in which a pair of keys is used to encrypt and decrypt a message so that it arrives securely. Initially, a network user receives a ...

A cryptographic key exchange method developed by Whitfield Diffie and Martin Hellman in 1976. Also known as the "Diffie-Hellman-Merkle" method and "exponential key agreement." Diffie-Hellman enables ...

Seems to me that the Diffie-Hellman key agreement protocol results in a symmetric shared private key. However, the books I've used for Security+ prep put it with RSA as a public-key algorithm.

A researcher challenges a conclusion in a recent academic paper on weak Diffie-Hellman implementations that claims 66 percent of IPsec VPN connections are at risk. A challenge has been made against ...

Conjecture on cracked primes for the Diffie-Hellman asymmetric algorithm is in recent news, suggesting that several nations have broken primes in common use and can read all traffic: [root@host ~]# ...

In discussing the Visual Studio Code Name "Orcas" January 2007 CTP I mentioned its managed classes for Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman and Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm cryptographic ...

Communicating "in the clear", Alice and Bob select two numbers, q and n. Alice then selects the secret number xa. Bob selects the secret number xb. From the two public numbers, q and n, and her secret ...

The Public Key Cryptographic Coprocessor (PK2C) is a hardware accelerator intended to speed-up the core functions of public-key cryptography algorithm ...
