    The new thing in cryptography now is lattice cryptography. The idea is that you form a multidimensional lattice with vectors that are mostly orthogonal, read in your byte from your plaintext (ex: 'g'), find a lattice coordinate that is also 'g' (you associate L points with bytes), but instead of choosing the cardinal coordinate of that lattice point, you choose a point near it; that point is then written to your ciphertext. It is impossible for an attacker to read the point from the ciphertext and match it to the lattice to discover the byte it is because they do not have the lattice basis (vectors) to reconstruct the lattice. All they have is a random point in space. They cannot even reconstruct the lattice from many sample points because the points were not chosen at the exact lattice coordinate: they were only chosen near them. So the sample of all points is completely random.
    The math part of this comes in with cryptographers wanting to represent a string of vector coordinates as a polynomial. They are, as I understand it, able to write coordinates (4,7,3,5,etc) as a polynomial, then they appear to write the exponents of the polynomial + coefficient backwards and this is the final thing that is written to the ciphertext. Anyway, if you ever feel like exploring the polynomial aspect of it and doing a video about it, I would love that. It's cutting edge stuff, mainly because lattice encryption is resistant to quantum computing attacks so far.

    Interesting video. I was just thinking that if the uncracked code was a string of letters, then I could enter that string into a computer programmed with the formula. Have the computer cycle through possible cypher numbers until a string of three letters to a viable word such as or and see if the rest of the cypher follows and translates.

      Addition & subtraction under modulo 128/256 in binary is just xor, and most symmetric cyphers just generate a fake one time pad that is xor'd with the plaintext. And again xor'd to decrypt.

      Ricky Leung also keep in mind that the primes everyone knows (23 and 5 in the example, and thus 8 as well) are also extremely large. Taking a log of a number like that is also going to be very difficult with a classical computer when you have to compute it so many times to find a and n

      Both are used, DH is used to exchange a key for symmetric algorithm (because RSA is slow), but RSA is used for identity authentication, so you're not doing DH with Eve pretending to be Bob (man in the middle attack)

    Doesn't the entire security of RSA rely on the value m then? Since an eavesdropper knows e,n and the value of m^e mod n, couldn't they just brute-force to find the value of m?

    • @hughjazz4936
      @hughjazz4936 Před 4 lety +2

      Yes, they can. That's why those values are chosen such that bruteforcing it would take 10 to 15 years with the best computers available.
      Every code can be cracked given enough time, but the point is that this time is long enough for the message to not be relevant anymore.
      Once computers get fast enough to crack codes in a reasonable time, you simply choose bigger values.

      It is thought that the number of atoms in the universe is around 10^80, which is roughly equivalent to 2^265. This means that brute forcing a 256-bit encryption key would be equivalent to counting every atom in the universe, which while theoretically possible, is not "really" possible.

    I realize this is an old video, with the most recent comment being several months old but I have a specific question on some confusion I have. First let me say I viewed part one and this video and I'm with it all except for a small part at the 1:30 -1:50 mark. As you summarize how it all works you say that what you and the friend did was: (g^b)^a (mod p) (g^a)^b (mod p) and that = g^(a*b) (mod p).
    But that's not what you actually did a little earlier. You did g^a (mod p) and sent THAT result to your friend, who then applied his secret key, b to it. And you did vice versa. Thus yielding your common secret key, or 2. With the notation (g^b)^a (mod p) are you saying 5^4^6 (mod p) ??
    5^4^6 is an enormous number. Shouldn't that notation read read: ((g^b) mod p)^a (mod p) = 2 the shared secret key.
    I only raise the issue because you talk about g^(ab) and I don't see you doing that exact calculation anywhere earlier. It could be I just don't understand mod notation.
    Zach or anyone else, help here would be appreciated.
    Big fan Zach, love your stuff.

      My Z34O solution may not satisfy an exclusively (myopic?) mathematical mind that is blind to the visual and geometric clues of an esoteric thinker.
      Godel himself showed that solving something and being able to provide a mathematical proof are not necessarily co-evident.
      What is wrong with finding a ' liquid' state solution to the Z340?
      'Zodiac' hints at this a multiplicity of times with his wordplay (some in Latin). There are more clues to the initial 340 keyword in another communique that I have yet to present.
