Survey on Asymmetric Cryptography Algorithms
Yifan Shen, Zhaochun Sun, Tian Zhou · 2021 International Conference on Electronic Information Engineering and Computer Science (EIECS) · 2021
Recent years have seen the importance of ensuring the safety and confidentiality of communication and digital data storage. Thus, secure cryptosystems are needed to guarantee security issues. Among them are asymmetric cryptography algorithms, which have been widely applied for carrying out key distribution and digital signature. This paper focuses on the current mainstream types of asymmetric cryptography, including the Rivest-Shamir-Adleman (RSA) algorithm, the Elgamal algorithm, and the Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) algorithm, and discuss their characteristics, advantages as well as prospects, respectively.
