More Notation THE INTRODUCTION OF KEYS REQUIRES A SLIGHT EXTENSION OF THE NOTATION USED TO DESCRIBE THE ENCRYPTION PROCESS. LET M DENOTE THE MESSAGE VALUE, WRITE EK(M) TO DESCRIBE THE RESULT OF ENCRYPTING M USING KEY K. IF C IS A PIECE OF CIPHERTEXT, THEN WRITE DK(M) TO DESCRIBE THE PROCESS OF DECRYPTING C USING KEY K. THAT IS, DK ( EK ( M ) ) = M
