Crypto Motion - Securing Data in Transit

, data in motion is most commonly security that uses asymmetric cryptography. Asymmetric crypto uses two different keys for encryption and decryption; a public key to encrypt a message and a private key for decryption. The private key is a completely random number, whereas the public key derives from the private key using a mathematically challenging problem. The math needs to be an operation that is "easy" to perform but "hard" to reverse (or crack). The three main types of math problems used are:
