[00:00:00]The second method is identity-based security. Validate the source. RSA does this through an elegant mathematical trick. We generate two enormous prime numbers, multiply them together, and publish the product. Anyone can see the product, the public key, but only the person who knows the original primes, the private key, can produce a valid cryptographic stamp. The math runs easily in one direction and is functionally impossible to reverse. And right about now, something in your head is forming a question. So, what does this have to do with Signe?

[00:00:31]And that's exactly the right question.
