Abstract

A fast decryption algorithm is described which permits use of the knapsack cipher (a public-key cryptosystem) at data rates in the neighborhood of 10 Mbit/sec. This high-speed capability can be used to incorporate the security and flexibility of public-key cryptosystems into a wide variety of real-time communications applications. Implementation of the algorithm using Very Large Scale Integration appears attractive: The circuit functions required are approximately 56 kilobits of memory and a small amount of arithmetic logic.
