On the Decentralized Generation of theRSA Moduli in Multi-Party Settings (1912.11401v1)
Published 24 Dec 2019 in cs.CR and cs.DC
Abstract: RSA cryptography is still widely used. Some of its applications (e.g., distributed signature schemes, cryptosystems) do not allow the RSA modulus to be generated by a centralized trusted entity. Instead, the factorization must remain unknown to all the network participants. To this date, the existing algorithms are either computationally expensive, or limited to two-party settings. In this work, we design a decentralized multi-party computation algorithm able to generate efficiently the RSA modulus.
