I just waste my time watching other channels for this kind of stuff when I know in the end this is where the real juice is. Impeccable.
Jeez, I wish this is how it was explained to me the first time. This was a brilliant video. And now I appreciate the brilliance of public key encryption. The idea of encrypting something twice, first with the other person's public key so only they can decrypt it, and then sign it with your own private key, so they know that you were legitimately the person sending it, is GENIUS. Thank you very, very much.
This was the first explanation in about 5 on public key cryptography where I had my lightbulb moment - thank you!
This was the first explanation I've seen that actually explained there was nothing special between the keys other than which one you personally made public or private. I never understood why anything done with your public key could only ever be undone with your private, but yet you could also sign emails with your private key to have them confirmed through the public without risking the private at all. Brilliant video.
It's crazy how after class and so many videos, only one of them finally makes sense (this one) and now when I start watching the other stuff it starts making sense. Every time I search for stuff now I hope I find a video from you guys with an explanation.
never ever understood public private key encryption decryption in this way, coming from a non-coding background the epiphany I had at 5:00 was just amazing, great explanation!!
You explained this better in 6 mins than my lecturer did in a whole semester. Thank you.
Really he has oversimplified it...no one can simplify it more than him in just 6 minutes. Great man!!
10 years later I'm able to rock up and absorb this, thanks dude!
You made my day.I am a Commerce student who had no idea about Public key and I needed to understand it because of IT subject in my course curriculum. I was totally frustrated and was not able to understand the concept from my book however by watching you video I got a basic idea about Public Key which is more than sufficient for my purpose.Thanks for the video.Love from India.
He's style of telling is perfect. Simplicity of his sentences shows how great his knowledge
Cryptographers are upset because you didn't mention "Alice or Bob or THE EVE!"
This is brilliant and these are words from a person who was a PhD supervisor and examiner. Sometimes people make it complicated because they don't understand it themselves fully.
I was trying to get started on cryptography in my spare time and tried to understand the private/public key thing, but now it makes complete sense. Now I have to learn a bazillion more things and probably go to uni for computer science.
This is the clearest explanation I've ever seen for asymmetric cryptography.
This is a great explanation. I never understood the concept and it bothered me very much being an IT person. This is an exciting concept and I now understand the value of it.
Wow this guy is really good on camera, would be nice to see him in more videos.
I'd like to see some simple algorithms on how exactly information is encrypted and decrypted with the keys.
I must have heard dozens of different explanations of public key encryption, but this one is the first one that just makes sense for the big picture of it all!
