A math class has 25 students. Assuming that all of the students were born in the first half of the year—between January 1st and June 30th— what is the probability that at least two students have the same birthday? Assume that nobody was born on leap day, so there are 181 possible birthdays.

33. Two users can establish a shared secret key using the Diffie-Hellman algorithm, even if they have never met, share no secrets, and have no certificates (a) Explain how this algorithm is susceptible to a man-in-the-middle attack. (b) How would this susceptibility change if n or g were secret?

The Diffie-Hellman key exchange is being used to establish a secret key between Alice and Bob. Alice sends Bob (227, 5, 82). Bob responds with (125). Alice’s secret number, x, is 12, and Bob’s secret number, y, is 3. Show how Alice and Bob compute the secret key.

Alice wants to communicate with Bob, using public-key cryptography. She establishes a connection to someone she hopes is Bob. She asks him for his public key and he sends it to her in plaintext along with an X.509 certificate signed by the root CA. Alice already has the public key ... is talking to Bob? Assume that Bob does not care who he is talking to (e.g., Bob is some kind of public service).

In RSA Algorithm, we have public key(e,n) and private key(d,n). Sender side we encrypt plain text P as an integer between 0 and n-1 as follows: $P^{e}modn$ and send it. At receiver side, we do the following: $(P^{e}modn)^{d}modn = P^{ed}modn$ ... encrypting the message P we are taking it as as integer between 0 and n-1. So, the P may not be coprime to n. Then how does the algorithm work?
