On Monday, 12.3, the Haifa Linux Club, will gather to hear Shachar Shemesh
speak about
Why the smallest RSA private key is not 42 (it's 47)
Abstract
The lecture is compressed overview of the mathematical principles behind
RSA. The lecture is mathematical in nature, and covers some modern algebra
grounds. The ultimate goal is to understand how an RSA key is generated,
what prime numbers cannot be used as RSA keys, and how the decryption key
is generated. The lecture will NOT cover such topics as "why is RSA
secure", though, time permitting, how to decrypt certain RSA messages
without their key will be shown.
