Introducing the SRVB Cryptosystem

An editor from Toptal here! Here's the summary we sent out in our newsletter today. It serves as a good summary:

Introducing the new Santana Rocha-Villas Boas (SRVB) cryptosystem. A new free and public cryptosystem, simpler than Elliptical Curve Cryptography (ECC) and cheaper than RSA.

In this article Toptal Freelance Software Engineer and mathematician Yuri da Silva Villas Boas will give you an introduction to the principles behind public-key cryptosystems and the SRVB cryptosystem, developed by the author and Prof. Daniel Santana Rocha. The algorithm authors are also creating a campaign that includes a financial reward to anyone who manages to crack the code.
