Conjectured Security of the ANSI-NIST Elliptic Curve RNG
نویسنده
چکیده
An elliptic curve random number generator (ECRNG) has been proposed in ANSI and NIST draft standards. This paper proves that, if three conjectures are true, then the ECRNG is secure. The three conjectures are hardness of the elliptic curve decisional Diffie-Hellman problem and the hardness of two newer problems, the x-logarithm problem and the truncated point problem.

Implementation of Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm
The Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) is the elliptic curve analogue of the Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA). It was accepted in 1999 as an ANSI standard, and was accepted in 2000 as IEEE and NIST standards. It was also accepted in 1998 as an ISO standard, and is under consideration for inclusion in some other ISO standards. Unlike the ordinary discrete logarithm problem and t...

An elliptic curve random number generator (ECRNG) has been approved in a NIST standard and proposed for ANSI and SECG draft standards. This paper proves that, if three conjectures are true, then the ECRNG is secure. The three conjectures are hardness of the elliptic curve decisional Diffie-Hellman problem and the hardness of two newer problems, the x-logarithm problem and the truncated point pr...
متن کاملAn efficient blind signature scheme based on the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem
Elliptic Curve Cryptosystems (ECC) have recently received significant attention by researchers due to their high performance such as low computational cost and small key size. In this paper a novel untraceable blind signature scheme is presented. Since the security of proposed method is based on difficulty of solving discrete logarithm over an elliptic curve, performance of the proposed scheme ...
متن کاملEfficient Implementation of NIST-Compliant Elliptic Curve Cryptography for Sensor Nodes
In this paper, we present a highly-optimized implementation of standards-compliant Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) for wireless sensor nodes and similar devices featuring an 8-bit AVR processor. The field arithmetic is written in Assembly language and optimized for the 192-bit NIST-specified prime p = 2 − 2 − 1, while the group arithmetic (i.e. point addition and doubling) is programmed in AN...
متن کاملEfficient elliptic curve cryptosystems
Elliptic curve cryptosystems (ECC) are new generations of public key cryptosystems that have a smaller key size for the same level of security. The exponentiation on elliptic curve is the most important operation in ECC, so when the ECC is put into practice, the major problem is how to enhance the speed of the exponentiation. It is thus of great interest to develop algorithms for exponentiation...
