  • The Mathematics of the RSA Public-Key Cryptosystem Burt Kaliski RSA Laboratories
    The Mathematics of the RSA Public-Key Cryptosystem Burt Kaliski RSA Laboratories ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Dr Burt Kaliski is a computer scientist whose involvement with the security industry has been through the company that Ronald Rivest, Adi Shamir and Leonard Adleman started in 1982 to commercialize the RSA encryption algorithm that they had invented. At the time, Kaliski had just started his undergraduate degree at MIT. Professor Rivest was the advisor of his bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral theses, all of which were about cryptography. When Kaliski finished his graduate work, Rivest asked him to consider joining the company, then called RSA Data Security. In 1989, he became employed as the company’s first full-time scientist. He is currently chief scientist at RSA Laboratories and vice president of research for RSA Security. Introduction Number theory may be one of the “purest” branches of mathematics, but it has turned out to be one of the most useful when it comes to computer security. For instance, number theory helps to protect sensitive data such as credit card numbers when you shop online. This is the result of some remarkable mathematics research from the 1970s that is now being applied worldwide. Sensitive data exchanged between a user and a Web site needs to be encrypted to prevent it from being disclosed to or modified by unauthorized parties. The encryption must be done in such a way that decryption is only possible with knowledge of a secret decryption key. The decryption key should only be known by authorized parties. In traditional cryptography, such as was available prior to the 1970s, the encryption and decryption operations are performed with the same key.

    Noname manuscript No. (will be inserted by the editor) Turing Award elites revisited: patterns of productivity, collaboration, authorship and impact Yinyu Jin1 · Sha Yuan1∗ · Zhou Shao2, 4 · Wendy Hall3 · Jie Tang4 Received: date / Accepted: date Abstract The Turing Award is recognized as the most influential and presti- gious award in the field of computer science(CS). With the rise of the science of science (SciSci), a large amount of bibliographic data has been analyzed in an attempt to understand the hidden mechanism of scientific evolution. These include the analysis of the Nobel Prize, including physics, chemistry, medicine, etc. In this article, we extract and analyze the data of 72 Turing Award lau- reates from the complete bibliographic data, fill the gap in the lack of Turing Award analysis, and discover the development characteristics of computer sci- ence as an independent discipline. First, we show most Turing Award laureates have long-term and high-quality educational backgrounds, and more than 61% of them have a degree in mathematics, which indicates that mathematics has played a significant role in the development of computer science. Secondly, the data shows that not all scholars have high productivity and high h-index; that is, the number of publications and h-index is not the leading indicator for evaluating the Turing Award. Third, the average age of awardees has increased from 40 to around 70 in recent years. This may be because new breakthroughs take longer, and some new technologies need time to prove their influence. Besides, we have also found that in the past ten years, international collabo- ration has experienced explosive growth, showing a new paradigm in the form of collaboration.

ABSTRACT In a symmetric cipher, both parties must use the same key for encryption and decryption. This means that the encryption key must be shared between the two parties before any messages can be decrypted. Symmetric systems are also known as shared secret systems or private key systems. Symmetric ciphers are significantly faster than asymmetric ciphers, but the requirements for key exchange make them difficult to use. In an asymmetric cipher, the encryption key and the decryption keys are separate. In an asymmetric system, each person has two keys. One key, the public key, is shared publicly. The second key, the private key, should never be shared with anyone.When you send a message using asymmetric cryptography, you encrypt the message using the recipients public key. The recipient then decrypts the message using his private key. That is why the system is called asymmetric.

  • Oral History Interview with Martin Hellman
    An Interview with MARTIN HELLMAN OH 375 Conducted by Jeffrey R. Yost on 22 November 2004 Palo Alto, California Charles Babbage Institute Center for the History of Information Technology University of Minnesota, Minneapolis Copyright 2004, Charles Babbage Institute Martin Hellman Interview 22 November 2004 Oral History 375 Abstract Leading cryptography scholar Martin Hellman begins by discussing his developing interest in cryptography, factors underlying his decision to do academic research in this area, and the circumstances and fundamental insights of his invention of public key cryptography with collaborators Whitfield Diffie and Ralph Merkle at Stanford University in the mid-1970s. He also relates his subsequent work in cryptography with Steve Pohlig (the Pohlig-Hellman system) and others. Hellman addresses his involvement with and the broader context of the debate about the federal government’s cryptography policy—regarding to the National Security Agency’s (NSA) early efforts to contain and discourage academic work in the field, the Department of Commerce’s encryption export restrictions (under the International Traffic of Arms Regulation, or ITAR), and key escrow (the so-called Clipper chip). He also touches on the commercialization of cryptography with RSA Data Security and VeriSign, as well as indicates some important individuals in academe and industry who have not received proper credit for their accomplishments in the field of cryptography. 1 TAPE 1 (Side A) Yost: My name is Jeffrey Yost. I am from the Charles Babbage Institute and am here today with Martin Hellman in his home in Stanford, California. It’s November 22nd 2004. Yost: Martin could you begin by giving a brief biographical background of yourself—of where you were born and where you grew up? Hellman: I was born October 2nd 1945 in New York City.

    “MIT Unlocks Cryptography for the Masses” How MIT people played a major role in the early development of public key cryptography. by Ed Radlo ‘67 May 30, 2020 1 Why is PKC important? It’s what made it possible to conduct confidential (encrypted) communications over open (unsecure) networks, most notably the Internet. • enabled e-commerce • enabled confidential (encrypted) e-mails over unsecure networks PKC is a two-sided coin: encryption and authentication. • Running the algorithm in forward gives encryption. • Running the algorithm in reverse gives authentication. Authentication, implemented by digital signatures, gives three things: 1. mathematical proof that the message hasn’t been altered 2. mathematical proof that the nominal sender was the actual sender 3. the sender can’t repudiate that s/he sent the message 2 History of Encryption Has been around for thousands of years. • Used by Egyptians and Phoenicians in 2000 B.C. • Mostly military applications. • Same key used for encryption and decryption (symmetric cryptography). • PKC is asymmetric cryptography. In the 1970’s, computers became increasingly widespread. • DES was the first widely used commercial encryption algorithm developed by IBM symmetric NBS (now NIST) made it a government standard in 1977 NSA made it intentionally weak o government had a monopoly until 1970’s o fear that encryption would get in the wrong hands 3 The Public Key Revolution PKC per se invented by Whitfield Diffie and Martin Hellman in 1976. • Whit Diffie – MIT ‘65 • Marty Hellman – assistant professor of Electrical Engineering at MIT (1969 – 1971) Three parts to the invention: 1. key broken into two – public portion and private portion computationally infeasible to derive the private key from the public key Rivest and Hellman also credit Ralph Merkle with this part 2.
