RSA Cryptography

Definition

RSA Cryptography is a public-key cryptosystem widely used for secure data transmission. It relies on the computational difficulty of factoring large integers into their prime factors. RSA uses a pair of keys, a public key for encryption and a private key for decryption, allowing secure communication without prior sharing of a secret key. This algorithm is fundamental for digital signatures, secure communication, and identity verification across various digital platforms.
