    The Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol allows two parties to securely exchange a secret key over an insecure channel without transmitting the key itself. It uses public key cryptography where each party generates both a public and private key. They exchange public keys and compute a shared secret only known to each other, which can then be used to encrypt subsequent communications using symmetric encryption.

    Diffie Hellman key Exchange

    It is not an encryption algorithm. The main purpose of DH Key exchange is to severely


    developed shared secrets that can be used to drive keys.
    These keys can be used in with symmetric-key algorithm to transmit information in a
    protected manner. It uses large numbers, and a lot of math. It doesn’t send all the data
    some secret data is kept.

    The diffie hellman algorithm(DH) is a key exchange protocol that enables two parties
    communicating over public channel to establish a mutual secret without it being
    transmitted over the internet. DH enables the two to use a public key to encrypt and
    decrypt their conversation or data using symmetric cryptography.
    Example

    For example Alice and Bob want to share their keys


    secretly. They can share their keys by following
    method.

    They use public path to share but they also have


    their secret keys.

    They both have yellow color (publically) and also


    their secret color. They mix both color and then got
    two different colors. Then they share these colors
    publicly and they got new colors, they mix their
    secret color with this color and got the same color.

    Similarly they can share their keys.


    Example

    In this example two


    users share their
    keys.

    A prime no, primitive


    path, and secret key
    are used to generate
    a value A and B.

    Then use their secret


    key to solve and got
    same answers.
    Important Points

    1. Prime Numbers should be at least 2048 bits long.


    2. No Authentication and Verification is present in it.
    3. Risky maybe connect with hackers because they can’t see each other.
    4. It is the complex algorithm.
    5. Most important development in public key cryptography.
    6. Should be secure when implemented in security protocols like TLS, DSA, RSA, STS
    and ElGamal.
