What Makes RSA Work?
Though
the numbers get huge, computer can handle them quickly
•These
codes are strong because breaking them needs s, which needs p, q, which means factoring Kr
•Factoring
is computationally tough -- best methods are only somewhat better than grammar school,
“try all small primes”
•Picking
129 digit key, means no computer can factor it … so the code is
unbreakable
