 In cryptography, the ElGamal encryption system is an asymmetric key
 encryption algorithm for public-key cryptography which is based on the
 Diffie-Hellman key exchange. It was described by Taher Elgamal in 1984.
 The security of the ElGamal scheme depends on the properties of the
 underlying group G as well as any padding scheme used on the messages.
