Blum–Micali algorithm

ID: blum-micali-algorithm

The Blum–Micali algorithm is a cryptographic algorithm used for digital signatures. It was introduced by Manuel Blum and Silvio Micali in 1982, providing a method for creating secure digital signatures based on number-theoretic principles. ### Key Features: 1. **Security Basis**: The security of the Blum–Micali algorithm is based on the difficulty of factoring large composite numbers, specifically products of two distinct large prime numbers.
