RSA is a public-key cryptographic system, and is the most famous and widely-used cryptographic system in today's digital world. Cryptanalytic Attacks on RSA, a professional book, covers almost all known cryptanalytic attacks and defenses of the RSA cryptographic system and its variants. Since RSA depends heavily on computational complexity theory and number theory, background information on complexity theory and number theory is presented first, followed by an account of the RSA cryptographic system and its variants.
This book is also suitable as a secondary text for advanced-level students in computer science and mathematics.
From the reviews:
"This book is ... about cryptanalytic attacks on RSA. ... The book is well organized and a joy to read and it is ... suitable either as a research reference for public-key cryptography in general and for RSA cryptology in particular, or as a graduate text in the field." (Marc M. Gysin, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2009 a)
"The book covers almost all major known cryptoanalytic attacks and defenses of the RSA cryptographic attacks and defenses of the RSA cryptographic system and its variants. It is a self-contained book and ... has been designed for a professional audience of practitioners and researchers. ... the book is suitable as a graduate text in the field." (Bal Kishan Dass, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1166, 2009)
