Network Security in Cloud Computing with Elliptic Curve Cryptography

Elliptic curve cryptography in cloud computing security

Cloud computing is a technological advancement that has been growing swiftly during the last decade. In simple terms, cloud computing is a technology that enables shared, remote, on-demand and ubiquitous access to services through the Internet. It enables consumers to access applications and services that reside on remote servers, without having to allocate large amounts of storage space on the...

Sensor Network Security: Elliptic Curve Cryptography on SunSPOTs

Security is critical for wireless sensor networks. While several security mechanisms and protocols have been developed in the context of the Internet, many new challenges arise due to the characteristics of power-constrained wireless sensor networks. In this work, we focus on the Javaprogrammable SunSPOT device and elliptic curve cryptography (ECC). We present an analysis of run times and energ...

Implementing Network Security Protocols based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography

Elliptic curve cryptography provides a methodology for obtaining high-speed, efficient, and scalable implementations of network security protocols. In this paper, we describe in detail three protocols based on elliptic curve cryptographic techniques, and the results of our implementation of the elliptic curve cryptography over the Galois field GF (2k), where k is a composite number. 1 Elliptic ...

Elliptic Curve Cryptography based Techniques for Information and Network Security

Software Elliptic Curve Cryptography

In this thesis, we study the software implementation of the NIST-recommended elliptic curves over prime fields. Our implementation goals are to achieve a fast, small, and portable cryptographic library, which supports elliptic curve digital signature generation and verification. The implementation results are presented on a Pentium I1 448.81 MHz. We also consider the sliding window algorithm (S...
