Questions tagged [private-key]

In asymmetric cryptography systems such as RSA and Diffie-Hellman, the private key serves as the partner to the public key. It is crucial to keep the private key confidential at all times, while the public key can be shared openly. If your inquiry does not directly relate to the private key (such as its usage or encoding), consider using tags like [public-key-encryption], [digital-signature], [diffie-hellman], or [cryptography].
