چکیده
In this paper we give an introduction to elliptic curve public key cryptosystems. We explain how the discrete logarithm in an elliptic curve group can be used to construct cryptosystems. We also focus on practical aspects such as implementation, standardization and intellectual property.

A New Approach for Secured Transition using Prime Field Elliptic Curve Cryptography System
The demands of secured electronic transactions are increasing rapidly. Prime Field Elliptic curve cryptosystems (PFECC) are becoming most popular because of the reduced number of key bits required in comparison to other cryptosystems. PFECC is emerging as an attractive alternative to traditional public-key cryptosystems. PFECC offers equivalent security with smaller key sizes resulting in faste...
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...
متن کاملDiffie-Hellman type key exchange protocols based on isogenies
In this paper, we propose some Diffie-Hellman type key exchange protocols using isogenies of elliptic curves. The first method which uses the endomorphism ring of an ordinary elliptic curve $ E $, is a straightforward generalization of elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman key exchange. The method uses commutativity of the endomorphism ring $ End(E) $. Then using dual isogenies, we propose...
متن کاملAn FPGA Implementation of an Elliptic Curve Processor over
This paper describes a hardware implementation of an arithmetic processor which is efficient for elliptic curve (EC) cryptosystems, which are becoming increasingly popular as an alternative for public key cryptosystems based on factoring. The modular multiplication is implemented using a Montgomery modular multiplication in a systolic array architecture, which has the advantage that the clock f...
متن کاملHardware architectures for public key cryptography
This paper presents an overview of hardware implementations for the two commonly used types of Public Key Cryptography, i.e. RSA and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), both based on modular arithmetic. We first discuss the mathematical background and the algorithms to implement these cryptosystems. Next an overview is given of the different hardware architectures which have been proposed in the...
