I don't know too much about this subject, so I can't expand it, maybe someone else can? Maybe after I finish my paper about RSA :) 13:32, 6 October 2005 (UTC)

Hmm, yeah, what I don't get is: If this is a block cypher, how come the recipient can read the message after decrypting it with private RSA key? Is the y of the trapdoor-function submitted within the encrypted content? - 62.206.74.26 09:57, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
