Privacy protection? It’s not to scare everyone; information is transparent, but we should still try to maintain personal privacy. Today, we will learn about symmetric encryption and asymmetric encryption. First, let’s read this character “钥”, is it pronounced “yao” or “yue”? Check the image below. 1. Symmetric Encryption As the name suggests, in symmetric encryption, … Read more

Understanding RSA Algorithm Principles: Overview of Common Encryption Algorithms

Alan Turing was primarily responsible for breaking the German Enigma cipher system during World War II. Decrypting codes required extensive computation, and Turing understood that to do a good job, one must first sharpen their tools. Thus, a computer called COLOSSUS was developed in 1943, and a total of 10 such electronic computers were produced, … Read more
