Title: Public-Key Cryptosystems
Post by Barukh on Oct 6^th, 2004, 1:18am

This may be an interesting reading:

A Survey of Public Key Cryptosystems (http://www.cacr.math.uwaterloo.ca/~ajmeneze/publications/publickey.pdf)

I was surprised to learn that the system based on the factorization is by no means the only one.

Although not a Public-Key cryptosystem, the MD5 is a useful cryptographic tool for certification. Here's an interesting article of its state of affairs as for Dec-2004:

MD5 To Be Considered Harmful Someday (http://eprint.iacr.org/2004/357.pdf)

...and this shows that "Someday" has arrived already:
