Great Video there's only a slight problem I have with it. Namely that you say that the private key is for encryption and the public key for description, while this is probably the most common use case it can lead to confusion when thinking about digital signatures since there the roles are reversed. Just something that took me a while when first learning about public key crypto

You're absolutely right. I should have pointed out that there are usecases where the keys' roles are reversed. I didn't think about it because I only talked about RSA in the context of message encryption, but the math I showed also works for private key encryption.

What would happen if the man in the middle just send it's own key instead of proxy the public key of person b so he could be able to decrypt the messages and reencrypt them using the public key of person b so nobody would notice anything?

Although modifying and injecting messages is a lot more difficult than just reading them, what you describe could be a significant security threat if an attacker succeeded to do so. Luckily, there is something called "Signing" to combat that. You can learn more about it on the RSA Wikipedia page.

But you already know Bob’s public key. That’s the starting state of the algorithm. No one sends their public keys. This is because RSA is a secure encryption algorithm, not secure communication algorithm.

@Fullfungo actually, the public keys have to be sent once after having been generated, otherwise, how is the other person supposed to know it?

@@NamePointer true but in the use case of https that is done through a chain of trust and the DNS servers since one public key is enough to start a secure conversation. And you shouldn't be using RSA for communication since it's way to inefficient compared to a symmetric encryption like AES so most of the time RSA is simply used as a method to securely establish an AES tunnel

Very Interesting and informative Great Job. Quick note p and q don't have to be prime numbers. They need to prime to each other! This is one of the reasons the Riemann hypothesis and prime numbers theories are super important.

Thank you for the feedback! However, if p and q are not primes, the proof of correctness wouldn't be valid anymore, as it used Fermat's little theorem which requires them to be primes, or am I missing something?

6:10 Your definition of prime numbers is not quite correct. Specifically, you need to replace your use of the word “integer” with “positive integer.” If you were trying to allow for negative primes, then you can’t say “greater than one” and “…product of _smaller_ positive integers…” You would have to say “Nonzero” and “Can’t be written as the product of two nonunits (e.g. not +1 or -1)” respectively.

@@NamePointer Yes, but you didn’t say that the _two factors_ had to be greater than one or even positive. Just “smaller integers.” Thus, a factorization like 7=(-1)(-7) would rule out 7 from being prime, by your definition.
