The cryptographic function, f, is a mathematical equation called the Diffie–Hellman Key Exchange. This equation takes in two inputs, a salt value and some data. The salt value is a random string of characters, and the data is the information that will be used to generate the key pair. The equation then produces two keys, a public key (NPUB1) and a private key (NSEC1). These two keys are generated using the data and salt value provided.
