      Prime Public-Key Cryptography

      Why are prime numbers used in public-key cryptography? I heard it is due to the difficulty of factoring large numbers into their prime factors. Are there any more reasons? Please elaborate.

      I try to deny myself any illusions or delusions, and I think that this perhaps entitles me to try and deny the same to others, at least as long as they refuse to keep their fantasies to themselves. - Christopher Hitchens
