RSA is a different algorithm with a longer history and a broader adoption, at least in the past. It depends upon the complexity of factoring large numbers.

Despite RSA's gesture, several competitors who have paid royalties for use of the algorithm for up to 17 years, argue that the industry could have done with the patent relaxation earlier.

The RSA algorithm works because, when n is sufficiently large, deriving d from a known e and n will be an impractically long calculation — unless we know p, in which case we can use the shortcut.

RSA’s demise is greatly exaggerated. At the Enigma 2023 Conference in Santa Clara, California, on Tuesday, computer scientist and security and privacy expert Simson Garfinkel assured researchers ...

A recent research paper makes the claim that the RSA cryptographic algorithm can be broken with a quantum algorithm. Skeptics warn: don’t believe everything you read.

RSA says researchers' results don't indicate a fundamental flaw in the RSA algorithm but more likely a problem with implementing it After having its flagship RSA crypto system called flawed this ...

RSA is currently doing an internal review of all of its products to see where the algorithm gets invoked and to change those. A company spokesman said the review is expected to be completed next week.

The RSA algorithm has become an encryption standard for many e-commerce security applications. The patent for it was issued to MIT on Sept. 20, 1983, and licensed exclusively to RSA Security.

Researchers at Black Hat USA 2013 made a call for usage of elliptic curve cryptography in favor of the RSA algorithm, which the experts said could be cracked in the next five years.

Whereas it was previously estimated that it would take a quantum computer with 20 million qubits (quantum bits) eight hours to crack the popular RSA algorithm (named after its inventors, Rivest ...

But he faults its core idea that the RSA algorithm is somehow fundamentally flawed. “I’d say all cryptography relies on good true random-number generation.
