This calculator helps you perform RSA encryption and decryption. It's designed for students and professionals working with cryptography, providing an intuitive interface to understand RSA operations.
All calculations are based on the standard RSA encryption formulas and methodologies. For further reading, please visit this resource. All calculations are based rigorously on the formulas and data provided by this source.
Encryption: \( c = m^e \mod n \)
Decryption: \( m = c^d \mod n \)
Consider an RSA system with a public key (n=3233, e=17) and a private key d=413. To encrypt a message m=65, you compute the ciphertext c using the formula \( c = m^e \mod n \). To decrypt, use \( m = c^d \mod n \).
RSA is a public-key cryptosystem widely used for secure data transmission.
Keys are generated by selecting two large prime numbers and computing their product to use in the public key.
The modulus n is the product of two primes and is part of both the public and private keys.
While theoretically possible, it is computationally infeasible to break RSA encryption with sufficiently large keys.
If the private key is lost, the encrypted data cannot be decrypted.
