2:31 Luke Smith before he became Luke Smooth
-
You got a positive shout out from Luke Smith today
-
I have a paper due this week about aes, rsa, and blowfish and you’ve been clutch bro
-
Please stop.
-
Honestly, this is much more understandable than AES.
-
Excellent video, thank you so much! Like so many others, I've used certs and digital signatures for years but never taken the time to understand what's happening and this video helped me understand it better.
-
If you want full understanding of the RSA cryptosystem (to the point of being able to program it), I advice reading "Introduction to Algorithms" (Cormen, Leiserson, Rivest, Stein) - the book also explains many related algorithms, like the Pollard Rho Method (generation of large, high-probability prime numbers).
-
5:04 You said the size of your RSA public key is "248 bits, or 256 bytes". I think you meant 2048 bits, 2048 bits / 8 bits per byte = 256 bytes.
-
Spot on. You’d encrypt outgoing messages with the recipient’s public key You’d encrypt with your private key for signature purposes. I’m not aware of any other reasons. The whole idea with both encryption and hashing in general is that they’re easy to perform in one direction and exceedingly difficult in the other.
-
It's important to remember that you still have to be sure you got the right public key! Maybe a video on roots of trust (for websites, secure boot, …) and their alternatives (safety number in Signal, networks of trust, etc.)?
-
7:30 when the rsa key is sus 😳
-
I like to think of the public key as a Lockable padlock, those kind in lockers that you can push in the shackle and it locks, but then you need the key to unlock it. thus the private key is the key, the padlock is that public one that anyone can use to lock their parcel in a cage with, and send it to you to open it
-
Yup bro a little demostration on terminal would also make this more understandable
-
I would appreciate more visual aid in these videos. In my opinion it would make the videos more understandable and it would be easier to follow what you're talking about. Btw thanks for the educational content 👍
-
Will you do a video about SHA256 too?
-
Thanks. Apriciate your work. Support from Italy
-
While AES is somewhat robust against quantum computers, RSA would be totally broken by it.
-
Finally I understand it!!! Great Thanks!
-
I feel like one of my teachers will use this video in the future
-
love from india bro 🇮🇳☮️
