Mod n cryptanalysis refers to a set of techniques used to analyze and break cryptographic systems that involve modular arithmetic with respect to some modulus \\( n \\). Modular arithmetic is foundational in many cryptographic algorithms, particularly those based on number theory, such as RSA. In these systems, computations are performed in a finite field defined by a modulus \\( n \\).
