I'm looking for a list or lists of sensibly sized proven primes - all the lists I can find are more interested in records, which are _way_ too big for cryptographic purposes.
By "sensibly sized" I mean in the range 512-8192 bits. I'm particularly after Sophie Germain primes right now, but I guess all primes are of interest.
Having set a computer to the problem of coming up with a Sophie Germain prime for the E startup protocol (Diffie-Hellman), I offer you:
static final BigInteger g = new BigInteger("2"); static final BigInteger modulus = new BigInteger("11973791477546250983817043765044391637751157152328012" + "72278994477192940843207042535379780702841268263028" + "59486033998465467188646855777933154987304015680716" + "74391647223805124273032053960564348124852668624831" + "01273341734490560148744399254916528366159159380290" + "29782321539388697349613396698017627677439533107752" + "978203");
And the proof?
Cheers,
Ben.
