Abstract

This paper addresses the modification of RSA cryptography namely Symmetric-RSA, which seem to be equally useful for different cryptographic applications such as encryption, digital signature, etc. In order to design Symmetric-RSA, two prime numbers are negotiated using Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol followed by RSA algorithm. As the new scheme uses Diffie-Hellman and RSA algorithm, the security of the overall system depends on discrete logarithm as well as factorization problem and thus, its security is more than public-key RSA. Finally, some new cryptographic applications of the proposed modifications are described that certainly extend the applications of the existing RSA.

2. Preliminaries

Since the modifications of RSA are proposed using Diffie-Hellman (DH) key exchange protocol, thus DH and RSA techniques are introduced below.
