In this article, five public key or asymmetric cryptographic mechanisms (EG over GF(2^4), BG, EG over Zp, MH and CR styles) with different security levels, computing power needs and usability are synthesized and analyzed. . All of them allow multiple functions such as performing encryption operations, conventional and blind electronic signatures, one-way functions such as summary (or hash) and other more sophisticated operations.
