Current needs of human communication came to status, when most of transferred messages are considered as private and transition over non-secured communication lines in open form is not possible. That originated a lot of different methods for securing of messages and transfers in ciphered form. Two mainstreams were established, symmetric cryptography and asymmetric cryptography. Second of mentioned groups is based on usage of two information – keys, when one of then is broadly known and is public and second, well protected and private. Using a public key it is possible to establish a cryptogram of message, but for deciphering it is necessary to know private key. Asymmetric methods are based on mathematical problems, for which there is not an effective computing algorithm. This thesis are focused for asymmetric cryptosystems based on discrete logarithm problem, where ciphering of message using public key is very easy and quick, but deciphering without knowledge of private key is extremely time consuming process. Work describes a mathematical base of discrete logarithm problem, its’ properties and methods developed for solving of this problem. Descriptions of particular cryptosystems are given, i.e. ElGamal cryptosystem, Diffie-Hellman protocol and DSA. Second part of thesis is focused for web application developed as study support of discrete logarithm problem and of cryptosystems using this problem. It describes functional and graphical interface, work with it and options given to user working with application. Mentions also lessons for user which should help with understanding of described problems and practicing.
