From Remarks on Internet and Java Security Basic Information Track Computational Science Course CPS616 -- Spring Semester 1999. by Geoffrey Fox, Mehmet Sen


Suppose A has (public key,private key) <eA,dA> and B keys <eB,dB>
A transmits a message mA to B encrypting it with B's public key eB
B decrypts this message and reads it using private key dB
Similarly B sends a message mB to A encrypting with eA which A decrypts with private key dA
