ITAS 663 AIU Online Diffie Hellman Key Exchange Discussion

 

I’m working on a Computer Science exercise and need support.

Appearing in the seminal paper by Diffie and Hellman, the first published public-key algorithm that defined public-key cryptography [DIFF76] is referred to as the Diffie-Hellman key exchange (Stallings & Brown, 2018). 

  • Define the Diffie-Hellman key exchange? How is this information relevant to you? 
  • What is the purpose of the algorithm? Be specific. 
  • How does it work? Give an example from personal experience or one that you have read about. 
  • What would be an appropriate implementation in an organization for the algorithm? 
  • In what types of organizations would this be appropriate?
