| <p>RSA is one of the earliest asymmetric public key encryption schemes. |
| Like many other cryptosystems, RSA relies on the presumed difficulty of a hard |
| mathematical problem, namely factorization of the product of two large prime |
| numbers. At the moment there does not exist an algorithm that can factor such |
| large numbers in reasonable time. RSA is used in a wide variety of |
| applications including digital signatures and key exchanges such as |
| establishing a TLS/SSL connection.</p> |
| <p>The RSA acronym is derived from the first letters of the surnames of the |
| algorithm’s founding trio.</p> |
| <h2 id="example"><a href="#example">Example</a></h2> |
