The beauty of cryptography lies in the math, not the secrecy. The Paybis guide on what cryptography https://paybis.com/blog/glossary/cryptography/ is explains it perfectly: modern crypto uses 'trapdoor functions' - easy to compute one way, nearly impossible to reverse. Your wallet's private key is like a fingerprint mathematically linked to your public address. Even with all the world's computing power, guessing a valid private key would take billions of years. The guide's analogy to mixing paint colors makes this complex topic click - you can't 'unmix' the result to find the original components.
