Asymmetric Key Encryption Sample Clauses

Asymmetric Key Encryption. Unlike conventional encryption schemes where the involved parties share a common encryption/decryption key, asymmetric key encryption schemes depend on the use of two different but mathematically related keys. One of the keys is used for encryption and the other for decryption. The asymmetric key encryption scheme is illustrated in Figure 2.2. Bob generates a pair of keys, his public/private key pair PkBob/SkBob. The public key is related to the private key, but in such a way that the private key cannot be derived from it without additional information. If Xxxxx wants to send an encrypted message to Bob, she first needs to obtain his public key. As the name implies Bob’s public key does not need to be kept secret, however it must be authenticated, i.e. Xxxxx must be assured that the public key she believes belongs to Bob is really his. Once Xxxxx has Bob’s authentic public key PkBob, she encrypts the plain text message m using it. The resulting cipher text c can then only be decrypted using Bob’s private key SkBob which only Bob knows.
