     - In RSA, the roles of the private and public keys can be reversed: you can encrypt with either key, and the other key (and only that key) can decrypt the message.     - In RSA, the roles of the private and public keys can be reversed: you can encrypt with either key, and the other key (and only that key) can decrypt the message.
