We'll choose the word "HOP".

Step 2: Convert to ASCII Values
Convert each character of "HOP" to its corresponding ASCII value:

H: ASCII value is 72
O: ASCII value is 79
P: ASCII value is 80
So, the ASCII values for "HOP" are 72, 79, and 80.

Step 3: RSA Encryption
To encrypt these ASCII values using RSA, we need to use RSA encryption parameters, which usually consist of:

n: the modulus (a product of two prime numbers, p and q)
e: the public exponent
For this exercise, you can use default parameters provided by the RSA Step-by-Step tool.

Step 4: Encrypt
Visit the RSA Step-by-Step tool and keep the default parameters:

n = 3233
e = 17
Encrypt each ASCII value using the RSA formula:

𝑐
=
𝑚
𝑒
m
o
d


𝑛
c=m
e
modn
where
𝑚
m is the ASCII value,
𝑒
e is the public exponent, and
𝑛
n is the modulus.

Calculate the encrypted values:

For ASCII value 72:
𝑐
=
7
2
17
m
o
d


3233
c=72
17
mod3233

Using the RSA Step-by-Step tool, the encrypted value is 2711.
For ASCII value 79:
𝑐
=
7
9
17
m
o
d


3233
c=79
17
mod3233

Using the RSA Step-by-Step tool, the encrypted value is 2081.
For ASCII value 80:
𝑐
=
8
0
17
m
o
d


3233
c=80
17
mod3233

Using the RSA Step-by-Step tool, the encrypted value is 2214.
Step 5: Record the Three-Character Cipher Text
The three-character cipher text for the word "HOP" is composed of the encrypted values for each character:

H -> 2711
O -> 2081
P -> 2214
Thus, the three-character cipher text is:

2711
2081
2214
In summary, the RSA-encrypted ASCII values for "HOP" are:

H: 2711
O: 2081
P: 2214
Each encrypted value represents the cipher text for the corresponding character. what is the cipher text

The resulting three-character cipher text is _________

1 answer

The resulting three-character cipher text for the word "HOP" is:

2711 2081 2214

This represents the encrypted values for each character in the word "HOP."
