RSA-Algorithm

Installation

Clone the repository.

git clone https://github.com/jolsfd/rsa-algorithm.git

Install Python 3.10 and the required modules. Decide if you want to use a venv. You can make a venv with python -m venv venv or make virtual_env and activate the venv with source venv/bin/activate.

# With pip
pip install -r requirements.txt
# or
make install

Test

Test the algorithm.

python test_rsa.py
# or
make test

Benchmark

Benchmark the algorithm.

python bench_rsa.py
# or
make bench

Command Line Interface

For creating a RSA key with a certain key lenght use the generate command.

# Example (Default: 2048)
python cli_rsa.py generate --bits 512

You can specifie where the key file should be saved with the --file flag before the command.

# Example (Default: key.txt)
python cli_rsa.py --file hello.txt generate

To encrypt a message use the encrypt command.

python cli_rsa.py encrypt "Hello World"

Copy the output and save it or decrypt it with the decrypt command by pasting the output after the command.

# Example
python cli_rsa.py decrypt 51895113689204577206839395581904075220
