Abstract

The processing and transmission of information has increased its effectiveness in recent decades. From mathematical models the security and integrity of the data are guaranteed. In spite of that, interceptions in the signal, attacks and information theft can happen in the transmission process. This paper presents a RSA algorithm analysis, using 4, 8 and 10 bits prime numbers with short messages. The encryption and decryption process implemented in python allowed the computational resources use. Processing time and data security are evaluated with a typical computational infrastructure required for its operation; in order to identify vulner-abilities and their reliability level when ideal conditions are available to perform a cryptanalysis.
