We explore the possibility of exposing sections of the private key in RSA without jeopardising the security of the overall system. Making significant segments of the key publicly available greatly reduces the amount of data which must be securely hidden, allowing us to use biometric readings to protect the key. We suggest the use of iris recognition for this purpose and propose possible implementations of this scheme.
