A readable Python implementation of the public key encryption algorithm, RSA. Written by @Melvillian, @YetiRevolution, and @mlinhmc
Commands
-
keygen This will generate a public (e, n) and private (d, n) keypair for you to use
python rsa.py keygen
-
encrypt This will encrypt text using the public keypair (e, n) and print the list of the encrypted blocks
python rsa.py <text> <e> <n>
-
decrypt This will decrypt text using the private keypair (d, n) and print the decrypted string
python rsa.py <text> <d> <n>
