La sécurité de RSA est basée sur la difficulté de factoriser des produits de 2 grands nombres (de l'ordre de 100 chiffres décimaux). L'algorithme RSA peut être utilisé pour authentifier ou signer des messages. [Reproduit avec l'autorisation de l'AFNOR.] 4, record 1, French, - algorithme%20de%20Rivest%2DShamir%2DAdleman

Introducido por Ron Rivest, Adi Shamir y Len Adleman del MIT en 1978, el algoritmo Rivest-Shamir-Adleman (RSA) es el único de los algoritmos de clave pública masivamente utilizados en la actualidad. Los mensajes son encriptados en bloques que poseen un valor en binario menor o igual que un número n. Es decir, en bloques de longitud menor o igual a log2(n). 1, record 1, Spanish, - algoritmo%20Rivest%2DShamir%2DAdleman

La resistencia inducida puede subdividirse en dos categorías amplias. La primera es resistencia sistémica adquirida (RSA). Este tipo se describió inicialmente como una respuesta a infección de patógeno. Subsecuentemente se encontró que el tratamiento de plantas con compuestos de bajo peso molecular puede inducir RSA, la cual puede desarrollarse local o sistémicamente en respuesta a un patógeno que cause una lesión necrótica o una respuesta hipersensitiva (RH). [...] El segundo tipo de resistencia inducida se desarrolla sistémicamente. Se conoce como resistencia sistémica inducida (RSI) [...] 1, record 3, Spanish, - resistencia%20sist%C3%A9mica%20adquirida
