Diffie-Hellman Elliptical Curve Cryptography

Whitfield Diffie is one of the creators of public key cryptography in the 1970's. Martin Hellman and Ralph Merkle were the others. Together they created the company RSA to bring encryption products to the marketplace.

Diffie-Hellman is not as much a cipher as a means of securing exchanging keys. You would use it to securely notify someone else of a symmetric shared key that you both would use for encrypting data.

Think of it as more a key exchange method utilizing public and private keys than an actual cipher methodology.

A hard exponent problem typically refers to a mathematical problem that involves computing or solving equations involving exponents that are computationally intensive or infeasible to solve efficiently. One common example is the discrete logarithm problem, where given a base ( g ) and a value ( g^x ) in a finite field, finding ( x ) is computationally challenging. Such problems are foundational in cryptography, particularly in schemes like Diffie-Hellman and RSA, where their difficulty ensures security.

The diffie hellman key exchange uses prime numbers to generate an asymmetric key pair which is used to create a secure channel over which a privet symmetric key can be sent.

The most common hybrid system is based on the Diffie-Hellman key exchange, which is a method for exchanging private keys using public key encryption. Diffie-Hellman key exchange uses asymmetric encryption to exchange session keys. These are limited-use symmetric keys for temporary communications; they allow two entities to conduct quick, efficient, secure communications based on symmetric encryption, which is more efficient than asymmetric encryption for sending messages. Diffie_Hellman provides the foundation for subsequent developments in public key encryption. It protects data from exposure to third parties, which is sometimes a problem when keys are exchanged out-of-land.
