Can RSA encrypt with private key?
RSA is a type of asymmetric encryption, which uses two different but linked keys. In RSA cryptography, both the public and the private keys can encrypt a message. The opposite key from the one used to encrypt a message is used to decrypt it.
Can I encrypt with private key?
Anyone can encrypt a message by using your public key, but only you can read it. When you receive the message, you decrypt it by using your private key. Similarly, you can encrypt a message for anyone else by using their public key, and they decrypt it by using their private key.
Can you decrypt RSA with private key?
RSA Decryption
Similarly, for decryption the process is the same. Here, you need to enter the RSA encrypted text and the result will be a plain-text. You have both the options to decrypt the encryption with either public or private keys.
