(a) Describe Diffie-Hellman key exchange using Z * p. Be sure to indicate what is kept secret and what is made public.
Added by Carlos A.
Step 1
First, two parties, say Alice and Bob, agree on a prime number p and a generator g of the group Z∗p. These values are made public. Show more…

(a) Describe the steps of the Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol to generate the shared secret a^{k_1k_2} between Bob and Alice, where a = 5 is a primitive element modulo 23, k_1 = 5 and k_2 = 8. (You do not need to verify that 5 is a primitive root modulo 23. Do the computations explicitly in Step 2 and Step 4.) (b) Alice then uses their shared secret as a key for a shift cipher to send Bob her favorite tv series and Bob receives the ciphertext ZNK COXK. What is her favorite tv series? Recall: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25

Alice and Bob agree to use the prime and the base for Diffie-Hellman key exchange. Alice sends Bob the value . Bob asks your assistance, so you tell him to use the secret exponent . What value should Bob send to Alice, and what is their secret shared value ?
