Cryptography is a technique or method for securing communications by using Aditi Badnore "RSA Cryptosystem using

I. INTRODUCTION
The Rivest-Shamir-Adleman (RSA) was publically described
in 1977, which is used by modern computers to encrypt and
decrypt the messages. It is an asymmetric
cryptographic algorithm. As two different keys are used in
this algorithm hence the name asymmetric. One key is
shared to anyone therefore it is also called public key
cryptography. Public key cryptography is largely used for
authentication, non-repudiation, and key exchange. RSA is a
relatively slow algorithm. Due to this limitation, it is not
commonly used to directly encrypt data. RSA is used to
transmit shared keys, which are then used for bulk
encryption-decryption. RSA involves four steps for the
complete process which are key generation, key distribution,
encryption, and decryption. All steps are mentioned below.

II. WORKING OF RSA Method
1. Key Generation: Each person or a party who desires to
participate in communication using encryption needs to 2. Key Distribution: If a message is sent from one end to
generate a pair of keys, namely public key and private the other using RSA, one person will have the public key
key. which is used for encryption (n, e) and other person will

3. Encryption: Message is encrypted using a public key To encrypt a plaintext M using an RSA public key we simply
(n, e). To encrypt the first plaintext P, this is modulo n. represent the plaintext as a number between 0 and N-1 and
Mathematical step for encryption is − C = Pe mod n then compute the ciphertext C as:
C = Me mod N.
Ciphertext C is equal to the plaintext P multiplied by
itself e times and then reduced modulo n. To decrypt a ciphertext C using an RSA public key we simply
compute the plaintext M as:
4. Decryption: Message is decrypted using private key by M = Cd mod N.
the receiver. The receiver has received a ciphertext.
Plaintext = Cd mod n V. IMAGE ENCRYPTION AND DECRYPTION
Example can be Core banking which is a set of services
provided by the group of networked bank branches. These
days Internet multimedia is on highest demand.
The below pictures tell the original image which is encrypted
and then again decrypted.

III. CURRENT USAGE OF RSA
RSA is one of the most widely used algorithms amongst
public key cryptography. RSA has a main advantage and is
preferably known for secure communications. Earlier it was Fig4: Original image
used in TLS and also in PGP encryption. At present, RSA is
used in VPN, emails, web browsers. Recently, SSL also used
RSA algorithm accompanied by File transfer Protocol (FTP),
HTTP, Network News Transfer Protocol (NNTP) which
established a key during SSL communication between the
server and the client. Also, RSA can be used in employee
verification. Smart card chips can be developed using this
algorithm.

VI. CONCLUSION
Though, RSA is most used algorithm these days, still it has
some limitations which are getting replaced by further
versions of RSA. In today’s digital world the most important
thing is to encrypt the image due to various types of attacks
and misusing of the same. Image encryption using RSA is
proved to be efficient enough and highly securable.
