Parent topics

Sibling topic

  • Symmetric key cryptography [r]: A cryptographic system in which there is only one key; the same secret key is used for encryption and decryption. [e]

Techniques

  • Diffie-Hellman [r]: A technique that allows two parties to safely establish a shared secret for use as a cryptographic key, even if someone is eavesdropping on their interaction. It requires that the parties have some means of authentication to be sure they are talking to the right person. [e]
  • RSA algorithm [r]: A widely used public key encryption algorithm whose strength depends on the difficulty of integer factorisation. [e]

Applications

Articles related by keyphrases (Bot populated)

  • Hybrid cryptosystem [r]: A system that combines public key with secret key methods; usually with a cryptographic hash for authentication as well. [e]
  • Digital signature [r]: A technique based on public key cryptography to allow people to "sign" documents using their private keys. [e]
  • Diffie-Hellman [r]: A technique that allows two parties to safely establish a shared secret for use as a cryptographic key, even if someone is eavesdropping on their interaction. It requires that the parties have some means of authentication to be sure they are talking to the right person. [e]
  • Cryptographic key [r]: Value used by a computer together with a complex algorithm to encrypt and decrypt messages. [e]
