Public Key Cryptography Invented Earlier than We Thought?
Ask anyone interested in cryptography about public-key cryptography, and the names of Diffie, Hellman, Murkle, Rivest, Shamir, and Adleman will quickly arise. They're the inventors of the concept of public-key cryptography as most of us know it.
