RSA-129

In mathematics, RSA-129 is one of the RSA numbers, large semiprimes that are part of the RSA Factoring Challenge. It was factored in April 1994 by a team led by Arjen K. Lenstra, using about 600 computers connected over the Internet; a $100 USD token prize was awarded by RSA Security for the factorisation, which was donated to the Free Software Foundation.

The factorization of RSA-129 is as follows:

RSA-129 = 11438162575788886766923577997614661201021829672124236256256184293

RSA-129 = 3490529510847650949147849619903898133417764638493387843990820577 * 32769132993266709549961988190834461413177642967992942539798288533

The factorisation was found using the Multiple Polynomial Quadratic Sieve algorithm.
