Using RSA algorithm what is the value of cipher test c if the plain text e = 7 and P = 5, q = 16 & n = 832. Determine the Euler’s totient function for the plain text?(a) 47(b) 584(c) 428(d) 60I have been asked this question at a job interview.This key question is from Cryptography in division Number Theory and Cryptography of Discrete Mathematics

Answer»

Right ANSWER is (d) 60

The explanation: Given PLAIN text (m) = 7, P = 5, Q = 16, where P and Q are two prime integer

n = P * Q ⇒ n = 5*16 = 80 ⇒ Z = (P-1)*(Q-1) ⇒ Z = (5-1)*(16-1) = 4*15 = 60.
