* Will now discuss the radically different public key systems, in which two keys are used. The development of public-key cryptography is the greatest and perhaps the only true revolution in the entire history of cryptography. It is asymmetric, involving the use of two separate keys, in contrast to symmetric encryption,which uses only one key. Anyone knowing the public key can encrypt messages or verify signatures, but cannot decrypt messages or create signatures, counter-intuitive though this may seem. It works by the clever use of number theory problems that are easy one way but hard the othe
