Ramblings on IT and Security
In the realm of Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), where the keys to digital security are exchanged, stored, and safeguarded, cryptographic providers play a pivotal role.

They are the invisible sentinels that underpin the very foundation of trust in the digital world.

That is why, on the Internet, we use encryption for the data that we send and receive, just to make sure that someone else is not listening in on our conversation. Encryption is not only used when directly communicating with each other, it is also used for something we call “integrity”, a.k.a. “I want to make sure that I get what the other end is sending without anyone modifying it in transit”. So, use encryption anywhere! read on while we explore the basics on how data is securely transferred from one place to another using Diffie-Hellman key exchange.
