Exercise · ZW-RSA-CRYPTOSYSTEM-002 · ★☆☆ Basic
If p = 5 and q = 7, what is the value of n?
Choose one option.
Show answer
- A. 35
Explanation
The modulus is n = pq = 5·7 = 35. The option equal to the product of p and q is correct.
Review the concept: RSA cryptosystem
The RSA cryptosystem is a public-key encryption method based on the difficulty of factoring the product of two large primes. It uses Euler's theorem and modular inverses to encrypt and decrypt messages.
\[c \equiv m^{e} \pmod{n}, \quad m \equiv c^{d} \pmod{n}\]
