On the Efficiency of Fast RSA Variants in Modern Mobile Phones

Klaus Hansen, Troels Larsen, Kim Olsen

Abstract

Modern mobile phones are increasingly being used for more services that require modern security mechanisms such as the public-key cryptosystem RSA. It is, however, well-known that public-key cryptography demands considerable computing resources and that RSA encryption is much faster than RSA decryption. It is consequently an interesting question if RSA as a whole can be executed efficiently on modern mobile phones.
