Cryptography (or cryptology ; from Greek , kryptos , "hidden, secret"; and , gráphō , "I write", or , -logy|-logia , respectively) is the practice and study of hiding information. Modern cryp...

The Prehistory of Public Key Cryptography ... Certificates weren't invented in the public sector until 1978. Even without that, it is improbable that NSA would build top secret-rated phones without years of evaluation of a new math trick. (Note: I'm looking for public, citable sources on the age of the STU-III project.

3.2. Public-Key Cryptography ... Some experts argue that cryptography appeared spontaneously sometime after writing was invented, with applications ranging from diplomatic missives to war-time battle plans. It is no surprise, then, that new forms of cryptography came soon after the widespread development of...

Public key cryptography still seems to be the best known solution for moving credentials in unprotected environments. Why is public infrastructure not more successful? One answer is that it is very successful. SSL appears to be the most widely deployed cryptography-based security mechanism of all time.

Ralph C. Merkle's Home Page ... I also have a broad interest in computer security and a particular interest in cryptography, having co-invented public key cryptography (for which I received the ACM Kanellakis Award, the IEEE Kobayashi Award, the 2000 RSA Award in Mathematics, and was named an IACR Fellow).

The problems of key distribution are solved by public key cryptography, the concept of which was introduced by Whitfield Diffie and Martin Hellman in 1975. (There is now evidence that the British Secret Service invented it a few years before Diffie and Hellman, but kept it a military secret — and did nothing with it.

All of these algorithms require the use of something called an "algebraic group." When public-key cryptography was invented, the algorithms were all implemented in the simplest algebraic group: the numbers modulo n. For example, RSA encryption is m^e mod n, and a Diffie-Hellman public key is g^y mod n. As it turns out,
