A Note on Public Key Cryptosystems
Yashika Singh, Shreya Jaiswal · International Journal of Advanced Networking and Applications · 2022
Public key or asymmetric cryptosystems use public-private key pair for the secure transmission of data. RSA and ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography/Cryptosystems) are widely used cryptosystems in this category. Public key cryptosystems rely on mathematical problems known as hard problems. The security of these cryptosystems is based on these hard problems. Public key cryptosystems solve the key transportation problem of symmetric key cryptosystems and able to provides digital signatures also.
