Is there an algorithm that I can use, similar to RSA with public/private
key, that will allow me to encrypt really long strings (like an email/text
file)? Actually no limit on the size would be ideal.
My group is using RSA with a key thats 2048 in size. We want to encrypt
strings that are longer then this key size gives.
If we switch to a key that is 4096 what is the max string length we can
encrypt? is it double?
is 256 - 11

n length I still get exceptions with string lengths smaller than
256.

Hi,
I'm a newbie when it comes to RSA, the last time I learned it was in school
over 7 years ago in one lecture.
Maybe I'm missing something but I will try to explain my problem again.
A former co worker generated a public and private key for our group. (I
think he used PGP but not sure).
So I hav
