Abstract
Cryptography is one of the main constituents of computer security. Public cryptography is the art of protecting information by transforming it (encrypting it) into an unreadable format, called cipher text. Only those who possess a secret key can decrypt the message into plain text. This paper reviews five commonly used asymmetric key cryptography algorithms namely RSA, Diffie–Hellman, El Gamal, DSA and ECC and present their comparative study. 1. Introduction
Today security is the challenging aspect in internet and network application. Cryptography is the study of mathematical techniques related to various aspects of information security, such as confidentiality or privacy, data integrity and entity authentication. It is not the

There exist many symmetric key encryption algorithms. Several hundreds of these are proposed over the years and even though a lot were found not to be secure, there exist many cryptographically strong ones. The situation is quite different for asymmetric algorithms. There are only three major families of public key algorithms which are of practical relevance. They can be classified based on their underlying computational problem. Integer factorization schemes are based on the fact that it is difficult to factor large integers. The most prominent representative of this algorithms family is RSA. Discrete Logarithm Schemes are based on what is known as the discrete logarithm problem in finite fields. The most prominent examples include the Diffie Hellman key exchange, El Gamal encryption or the digital signature algorithm. (DSA). A generalization of the discrete logarithms algorithms are elliptic curve (EC) public-key schemes. The most popular examples include Elliptical Curve Diffie Hellman key exchange (ECDH) and Elliptical Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA). There are no known attacks against any of the schemes if the parameters, especially the operand and key lengths are 17 chosen carefully. It is important to note that each of the three families can be used to provide the main public key mechanisms of key …show more content…
Diffie–Hellman key exchange is a specific method of exchanging cryptographic keys. This method allows two parties that have no prior knowledge of each other to jointly establish a shared secret key over an insecure communications channel. This key can then be used to encrypt subsequent communications using a symmetric key cipher. The algorithm is itself limited to the exchange of keys. The Diffie–Hellman key exchange algorithm depends for its effectiveness on the difficulty of computing discrete logarithms
Our protocol takes two integers decomposed into encrypted bit vectors [a][b] and outputs the greater integer. In this configuration cloud 1 (C1) has the encrypted bit vectors of the integers being compared and cloud 2 (C2) knows the private key. The protocol is as follows in a very concise form. we can say with firm conviction that vector [Y] consist of encrypted zeros at every location except one location which holds the value of encrypted one. This distinct location identifies the first position where vector [a] and [b] differ.
Assessment 3 – Assignment 1 Student Name: John Matanisiga Student ID No: S11124727 1. The difference between these wireless encryption is that WEP is wired equivalent privacy, a default procedure for wired security networks, WPA is an upgrade from WEP, and it is a wireless protected access to networks, whereas WPA2 is modernized into a more secure Wi-Fi from WPA. 2. With Static addressing, a computer (or other device) is configured to always use the same IP address, whereas dynamic addressing, the IP address can change periodically and is managed by a centralized network service.
Basic Operators Besides assigning a variable an initial value, we can also perform the usual mathe- matical operations on variables. Basic operators in Python include +, -, *, /, //, % and ** which represent addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, floor divi- sion, modulus and exponent respectively. Example: Suppose x = 5, y = 2 Addition:
Like terms? Numbers that multiply together to get another number. Like terms are variables that are the same. Example: x-5x-5= 1 because x-5 and x-5 are like terms, meaning they factor out to one over one which is equivalent to one. -What are factors?
1- A caller contacts a master server, and signals that they would like to establish a call with a responder. 2- The responder receives an encrypted signal, connects to the master server, and indicates that it has received the call signal. 3- If the responder chooses to answer the call, then it is relayed through the closest available relay server.
Other protocols such as secure socket layer (SSL) which operates at the transport layer enable server authentication as well as client authentication and encrypted communication. Using SSL, we could ensure that the information being sent from our companies’ server and any remote clients is secure. However, it is worth pointing out that SSL has a successor known as transport layer security (TLS). As a successor to SSL functionality, wise TLS is very similar. Some of the improvements made in TLS at least TLS v1.2 include less vulnerabilities compared to SSL as well as new algorithm’s .
They no longer need to see each group beginning build through a picture. They will be able to understand the relationship between number, and regroup when needed. Student are able to work problem through by recognizing pattern within the factors
The (EYFS) is the Early Years Foundation Stage which is a framework that includes the legislation and standards to keep children safe. Parents and carers trust us to look after their children and it is our responsibility to keep the children in our care safe and away from any possible harm. All employers must meet certain rules to make sure everyone is safe in their place of work. Also they must be aware and careful that there is no risk of injury to anyone. It is also a number of legal requirements and regularity that we need to know about to help us protect children and adults in the setting.
Introduction An electoral system or voting system is a mechanism by voters to make a choice between the options put forward before them. This part of rules is the most controversy about electoral systems for converting votes into seats. According to Hague and Harrop (2001), an election is a competition for office based on a formal expression of preferences by a population. These opinions are then combined into a collective decision about which candidates have won. As Abraham Lincoln said “Election belong to the people.
Modern CPUs will be able to handle both integer and floating point arithmetic in hardware. Integers are a type of data that a variable can hold that are one, two, four or eight bytes in size and are usually referred to as ints. Floating point is a type of data that a variable can hold which is numbers up to eight bytes in
The Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) is an arrangement of regulations that are used to regulate sales and exchanges in the U.S. The UCC is not law, but rather statutes that can differ from one state to the next. Article 2 of the UCC is a model statute that has been accepted by each state, aside from Louisiana, and is utilized to settle issues with respect to the sale of merchandise. Products secured by the UCC are characterized as anything that is recognizable and transportable. Products that are secured by Article 2 may incorporate livestock, produce, hardware, or cars.

Cryptography basically makes any transaction secure between two parties. Security is very important, because every person with Bitcoins, their Bitcoins, and every transaction is logged to a public ledger visible by every computer on the
You are A, and you A are assigned a number, your address. To go on a web site, you need a way and a key. The way will be supplied by an external address and the key will be the combination between our key and the other part’s key. It’s not that simple to explain, but more or less it works just like
