Generate Rsa Public Private Key

In this chapter, we will focus on step wise implementation of RSA algorithm using Python.

Generating RSA keys

The following steps are involved in generating RSA keys −

• Create two large prime numbers namely p and q. The product of these numbers will be called n, where n= p*q

• Generate a random number which is relatively prime with (p-1) and (q-1). Let the number be called as e.

• Calculate the modular inverse of e. The calculated inverse will be called as d.

Algorithms for generating RSA keys

We need two primary algorithms for generating RSA keys using Python − Cryptomath module and Rabin Miller module.

Cryptomath Module

The source code of cryptomath module which follows all the basic implementation of RSA algorithm is as follows −

RabinMiller Module

The source code of RabinMiller module which follows all the basic implementation of RSA algorithm is as follows −

The complete code for generating RSA keys is as follows −

Output

The public key and private keys are generated and saved in the respective files as shown in the following output.

• This module allows one to (re)generate OpenSSL private keys.
• One can generate RSA, DSA, ECC or EdDSA private keys.
• Keys are generated in PEM format.
• Please note that the module regenerates private keys if they don’t match the module’s options. In particular, if you provide another passphrase (or specify none), change the keysize, etc., the private key will be regenerated. If you are concerned that this could overwrite your private key, consider using the backup option.
• The module can use the cryptography Python library, or the pyOpenSSL Python library. By default, it tries to detect which one is available. This can be overridden with the select_crypto_backend option. Please note that the PyOpenSSL backend was deprecated in Ansible 2.9 and will be removed in Ansible 2.13.”

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

• Either cryptography >= 1.2.3 (older versions might work as well)
• Or pyOpenSSL
