I was recently in a meeting where a person needed to generate a private and public key for RSA encryption, but they were using a PC (Windows). This is something that is easily done via a terminal using ssh-keygen on Mac and Linux, however on Windows… this tool is not easily accessible to the non-technical person.

It then occurred to me (and a head slapped followed), that I have fairly recently published a library for Javascript RSA encryption which includes private and public key generation for RSA encryption. Not only that, but this is all available online.

So, if anyone needs an online RSA key generator, look no further than http://travistidwell.com/jsencrypt/demo.

This directly maps to the Open Source GitHub repository found at https://github.com/travist/jsencrypt, so anyone can modify this website to make it better.

And here is an iframe of the RSA key generation tool.
