Cryptography If mathematicians found a computationally efficient way to factor semiprime numbers, what backup cryptographic algorithms do we have? |
Posted: 26 Sep 2018 05:39 AM PDT As far as I know, most major encryption algorithms are predicated upon semiprimes being incredibly difficult to factor. What happens when that is no longer the case? Sorry if this is an elementary question. I am "new" to these concepts, studying for my CISSP now and on the crypto chapters but had some thoughts cross my mind. [link] [comments] |
