By using the private RSA key decrypted in this way, a malicious attacker can decrypt all the related encryption keys.

This paper presents a design of data encryption and decryption in a network environment using RSA algorithm with a specific message block size.

The researchers advise against using RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 encryption and urge impacted users to seek or request vendors to provide alternative backward compatibility avenues.

Three security researchers have discovered a variation to an old cryptographic attack that can be exploited to obtain the private encryption key necessary to decrypt sensitive HTTPS traffic under ...

RSA is an encryption technique developed in the late 1970s that involves generating public and private keys; the former is used for encryption and the latter decryption.

At the RSA conference in San Francisco, a looming debate over decryption – whether the FBI can request a 'backdoor' to iPhone data – overshadowed the security gathering.
