Yeh u are right this was a problem for Pubic Key crypto systems 
but even in the implementation of these SSL or TLS first a master 
secret is set up with the help of
pre master secret, which is done through the Public Key 
Cryptography like RSA, but I just wanted to know
if the RSA or any other public key cryptosystem that we use in 
these protocols are they suspectible to Pauls
Timing Analysis Attack or not? and If not why they are not? What 
has been done in them to take care so that
they are not suscpetible to Pauls timing analysis attack

(Paul was one of those persons only who had designed
the SSL Protocol)


Lutz: Will you also comment your comments are sometimes
very much useful to me

Thanks List
