After 17 years RSA makes its algorithm free. Security firm RSA publicly released its encryption algorithm Wednesday, allowing any company to freely develop solutions based on its prevalent technology.

Researchers Crack RSA Encryption Algorithm By Shane McGlaun March 9, 2010 9:22 am EST In December of 2009 we learned that the encryption algorithm used to protect GMS voice calls had been cracked .

The first public key encryption algorithm: RSA. The first algorithms using asymmetric keys were devised in secret by the British government's SIGINT agency, GCHQ, in 1973.

“On Feb. 14th, a research paper was submitted for publication stating that an alleged flaw has been found in the RSA encryption algorithm,” RSA said Thursday in a statement.

An encryption algorithm that may contain a back door for government surveillance was set as the default configuration in RSA's encryption implementation toolkit for developers.

The RSA algorithm is but one of many systems where a set of mathematical theorems, often from number theory, can be synthesised to construct an encryption scheme.
