| Summary |
In a rapidly growing world of technology, it is estimated that at least one billion people in the world have internet access. Large amounts of information are being exchanged every second, resulting in a high demand for the ability to transfer this information securely. These securities are built on the difficulty of factoring large numbers, often, numbers of hundreds of digits in length. This research project takes a look at one method of doing this, Pollard’s p – 1 factorization method. Additionally, the research created a simulation model of completely secure key exchange, another important aspect of exchanging information securely and secretly. Using the laws of quantum physics, quantum cryptography provides a method for this type of key exchange.
