Naturally, the underlying hard problems for this system are both decisional Diffie-Hellman assumption and factorization of integers. Since the system is related to RSA scheme indirectly, key generation process is very efficient. This cryptosystem actually supports and strengthens the current public key cryptosystems in [6], [8] and [20]. Encryption algorithm in the system is constructed via non- commutative operations in integral group rings of dihedral groups. Finally, we briefly discuss the security of our cryptosystem against some known attacks.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessGroup RingUnitsUnit GroupPublic Key CryptographyBass Cyclic UnitsArticle252N/AQ2579589WOS:000781586000019
