Performance Comparison: RSA versus AES
Exercise the idea that digital certificates are verified using a chain of trust. The trust anchor for the digital certificates is the Root Certificate Authority (CA). In addition, we will practice using command-line procedures for setting up SSL/TLS certificates. First, we will generate a root certificate (to become the root CA) and other certificates.
Then, we will sign the certificates with the root certificate.
Next, we will place these certificates on an Apache web server. When the web server is visited by a client's browser with the root CA installed, the server will be trusted automatically due the chain of trust.
In this task, we will study the performance of public-key algorithms. Please prepare a file (message.txt) that contains a 16-byte message - You may notice that you are required to enter the key when the http restarts. There is way to start the Apache server without requiring inputting the key
