Clifford Christopher Cocks CB FRS (born 28 December 1950) is a British mathematician and cryptographer.In 1973, while working at the United Kingdom Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), he invented a public-key cryptography algorithm equivalent to what would become (in 1978) the RSA algorithm. The idea was classified information and his insight remained hidden for 24 years, although it was independently invented by Ronald Rivest, Adi Shamir, and Leonard Adleman in 1977. Public-key cryptography using prime factorisation is now part of nearly every Internet transaction.

Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • Clifford Christopher Cocks, CB, (* 28. Dezember 1950) ist ein britischer Mathematiker und Kryptograph am GCHQ. Er entdeckte den weit verbreiteten Verschlüsselungsalgorithmus, der nun unter dem Namen RSA bekannt ist, etwa drei Jahre bevor er unabhängig von Ronald Rivest, Adi Shamir und Leonard Adleman am MIT entwickelt wurde. Diese Errungenschaft wird ihm nicht allgemein anerkannt, da seine Arbeit per definitionem einer Geheimhaltungsstufe unterlag und deshalb damals nicht veröffentlicht wurde. (de)

Il n'a généralement pas été reconnu pour cette réussite parce que son travail était par définition classé secret, donc pas rendu public à l'époque. * Portail de la cryptologie (fr)

Porém, Cocks não é reconhecido por sua realização porque o seu trabalho era sujeito a um nível de sigilo e não foi publicado na época. (pt)
