The combination of a public key and a private key is known as a?

This is known as RSA encryption. Encryption involving a public and private key combination is known as asynchronous cryptography, as opposed to synchronous cryptography. It is also known as public key cryptography. RSA is an algorithm that may be used (but there are others that can be used), in public key cryptography. (A key pair)


What is the process for RSA decryption using a public key?

RSA decryption using a public key involves the recipient using the public key provided by the sender to decrypt the encrypted message. The recipient uses the public key to raise the ciphertext to the power of the public exponent, and then takes the result modulo the public modulus to obtain the original plaintext message.


Where can you decrypt Public Key Cryptography?

Public key cryptography always works the same way: Encryption is done with the public key, decryption done with the private key. It is not possible to decrypt anything with the public key (otherwise the whole system would crash down). The only time it's done the other way is for message authentication, where only a digest of a message is encrypted and can be verified (not decrypted) using the public key.


Public key encryption is also known as asymmetric encryption?

Yes. Public Key encryption (or asymmetric encryption) requires a pair of keys; a public and a private key for exchanging data in a secure manner.


Can you explain how to decrypt a message using a public key?

To decrypt a message using a public key, the recipient must have the corresponding private key. The sender encrypts the message using the recipient's public key, which can only be decrypted with the recipient's private key. This ensures that only the intended recipient can read the message.

What does the public key on a CAC card identify?

The public key on a Common Access Card (CAC) identifies the cardholder and enables secure communications. It is part of a cryptographic pair used for authentication, ensuring that the cardholder can access secure systems and data. The public key facilitates the encryption of data that only the corresponding private key, held securely on the card, can decrypt. This mechanism supports various security functions, including digital signatures and secure email.

What is a characteristic of public key cryptography?

If data is encrypted with the public key, only the private key can decrypt itAnswer Explanation: Public key encryption uses an asymmetric algorithm, which uses a public key and private key combination for the encryption and decryption process. If data is encrypted with the public key, only the private key can decrypt the data. The public key cannot decrypt a message that was encrypted with the public key. Alternatively, if data is encrypted with the private key, only the public key can decrypt the data.
