Balanced Primes for the RSA modulus
I am currently working on a Multipower RSA given by Takagi. I am following the book 'Cryptanalysis of RSA and Its Variants' by Jason Hinek. It gives the definition of balanced primes for standard RSA ...

Why are the primes all the same size in pqRSA?
pqRSA is MP-RSA with 4096-bit primes to build up a modulus of up to 1TB.
If the objective is to make processing the modulus as expensive as possible for the quantum computer why not use just two 4096-...

Does any proof exist for the optimal number of primes in a RSA key?
My guess is:
Known attack algorithms only work on 2 primes factorization, they don't work on 3+ RSA primes.
More than 3 primes is cpu waste time, better is to increase key length.
So 3 primes will be ...

RSA: exploiting consecutive primes
It's given 2 plaintexts $m_1$ and $m_2$, and 5 different values of $n\quad\{n_1, n_2, n_3, n_4, n_5\}$ which are generated as follows:
$n_1$ is a a product of two relatively small 128-bit $p$ and $q$ ...

Can we do Multi-Prime Diffie-Hellman?
What is the correct way, if any, to do Multi-Prime DH?
From security point of view, is there any benefit to do it?
Multi-Prime is not about multi participants.
Multi prime is when we use two or more ...

Decrypting Multi-Prime RSA with e, N, and factors of N given
I was wondering if there was any way to compute the private key $d$ when knowing only $e$ and $N$, and being able to factor $N$ as 4 prime numbers $p, q, r$ and $s$. I've been searching for days and I ...

Plain RSA with $3$ primes, find all integers $x$ so that $x$ is equal to $y$ when $y= e_K(x) = x^{b} \bmod n$
I'm using the notation from the book: Cryptography: Theory and Practice, Third Edition.
I have a cryptosystem with the following information:
$n = p_1 p_2 p_3$ and integer $x$ is encrypted using $y = ...

What is multi-prime RSA (RSA-MP)?
I found some related question but no real explanation of what it is and when and why to use it. What are the benefits and downsides and is it recommended?

Chinese Remainder Theorem and Elgamal
I am studying an encryption scheme which is Elgamal-like where I think CRT can help optimise the encryption and decryption but I am not sure if I am applying CRT the correct way.
I have a cyclic ...

Why is pqRSA in the NIST PQC submissions?
In the NIST post-quantum cryptography workshop, the round one submissions included pqRSA. If memory serves, this is an implementation of RSA using the product of a very large number of 4096-bit primes ...

RSA with 3 primes
I was trying to understand how does RSA with 3 primes work. I have checked Wikipedia but yet I didn’t fully understand their solution.
I would like to know how do you encrypt for $n=p*q*r$
How do you ...

Lower bound for the size of prime factors?
We all know classic RSA and that we should pick moduli of at least 2048-bit length to get decent (112 bit) security.
Now there's also multi-prime RSA, which can yield significant speed-ups using the ...

Can multi-prime RSA be used to create an abuse-resistant lawful interception mechanism?
New to site so this may have been asked before: Can multi-prime RSA, i.e. where N is product of three or more distinct primes, be used for secure communication while allowing distinct authoritative ...

RSA encryption and decryption with multiple prime modulus using CRT
Every information I found on internet about RSA-CRT encryption/decryption uses only two primes. I'm interested in my project in doing that using multiple (up to 8) primes.
The general idea is to ...
