More concepts to explore
Cryptographic hashes
Cryptographic hashes aim at preimage and collision resistance; hashing alone is not encryption.
Elliptic curve cryptography
Finite-field elliptic curve groups support cryptography based on hard discrete logarithms.
Chinese remainder theorem
Pairwise coprime moduli give a unique combined congruence class modulo their product.
Cryptographic security models
Security depends on defined adversary capabilities, assumptions and failure probability.
Diffie–Hellman key agreement
Parties derive a shared secret through group exponentiation; authentication is needed against interception.
