Yes, when someone posted this on a forum:

and I was tempted to answer however due to other CP posters showing hostility towards the post I changed my mind.

Oh yes, I remember that time. I told the project designer that the documentation was not clear. That went down well.

One of those days, I guess. I'm sure tomorrow will be better.

I once took part in a decision drive by. There we were, thinking we were bad ass gangsta's in our gang colours (a rather nice looking pinstripe, with silk ties). When the fuzz showed up, we lawyered up faster than you can say "multiple layer transparency protocol, with internal focus on key deliverables".

This sounds suspiciously like another interview question. I took a look at your history and you complained, the last time you posted a question like this, that people told you that you had to answer things for yourself rather than looking for others to give you homework or interview answers. Now, this sounds like one of those questions where the interviewer is trying to find out how YOU have managed conflict, internal politics and project demands. Why do you think that my (or others) experiences will have any relevance for you? What happens when the interviewer attempts to drill deeper into your answer? How will you cope? This is all about YOUR experiences, and YOUR projects. As you don't work for me, our client experiences are wildly different so my answers would be meaningless in your situation. You might as well answer with details about what I had for breakfast (2 hi-fi bars), that's how relevant my experiences would be for you.

This is how I understand how the RSA algorithm works. I'd like to know if this is accurate.
- Entity A wishes to receive coded messages, and so generates a pair of prime numbers P & Q of a certain size (an easy task for that size), multiplies them together to get a composite prime N = P * Q and as well uses P & Q to derive (via a certain algorithm) another number E (both also easy tasks), and publishes these numbers N & E while keeping P & Q secret.
- Entity B wishes to send Entity A a coded message, and so uses the published numbers N & E to code the message (also an easy task).
- Entity A receives the message, and because A has knowledge of the secret numbers P & Q, the decryption is an easy task.
- Entity C nefariously intercepts and wants to decode the message. However, to decode the message, P & Q must be known - but the only way to uncover these numbers from N is to do a prime factorization on N, which for the size of N is an astronomically difficult task.
- When Entity B sends Entity A the coded message, the veracity of Entity B being the sender is proven in the same way, albeit as the converse.
I welcome any comments.

I like the one where they talk about someone sending a secret through the postal service.
1. Bob wants to send Alice a secret.
2. But Bob cannot send the locked up secret without sending Alice the key to unlock it with too. But, if he does that, then a postal worker could use the key himself or it could fall into someone elses hands.
3. To solve this issue, Alice sends Bob an unlocked lock that only she has the key to.
4. Bob places the lock on the box and locks the box and sends the locked box along to Alice
5. Alice receives the box and unlocks it with her unique key.
Now, just do that mathematically.

Nice explanation.
Just a small question: How does Bob send Alice the key anytime before Step 4? Can that key not be duplicated by its bearer? (well, they were two questions )
|
|
|
|
|
Bob never has Alice's secret key; he can lock the lock without it.

Got it. This is the public-key / private-key thing, right?

I don't think it's appropriate to post links in the Lounge that only work in the UK!
