A simple implementation of the RSA algorithm with examples.

RSA

This is a simple RSA Implementation that demonstrates key generation as well as encryption and decryption. It's been setup to run benchmarks demonstrating a particular algorithm. It's been tested and confirmed to work on OSX 10.9 Mavericks.

Note: the generateSeedIO function has broken with Mavericks, so please don't use this for any real encryption.

To Run on OSX

1. Using Homebrew, make sure you've installed the GNU Multiple Precision Library:

brew install gmp

2. Then compile using G++:

make

3. Then run:

./RSA

To Run on Ubuntu (16.10)

1. Using apt, make sure you've installed the GNU Multiple Precision Library:

apt install libgmp-dev

2. Then compile using G++:

make

3. Then run:

./RSA
