Tradeoff analysis of FPGA based elliptic curve cryptography

چکیده
FPGAs are an attractive platform for elliptic curve cryptography hardware. Since field multiplication is the most critical operation in elliptic curve cryptography, we have studied how efficient several field multipliers can be mapped to lookup table based FPGAs. Furthermore we have compared different curve coordinate representations with respect to the number of required field operations, and show how an elliptic curve coprocessor based on the Montgomery algorithm for curve multiplication can be implemented using our generic coprocessor architecture.

In recent years it has been trying that with regard to the question of computational complexity of discrete logarithm more strength and less in the elliptic curve than other hard issues, applications such as elliptic curve cryptography, a blind digital signature method, other methods such as encryption replacement DLP. In this paper, a new blind digital signature scheme based on elliptic curve...
متن کاملReconfigurable Implementation of Elliptic Curve Crypto Algorithms
For FPGA based coprocessors for elliptic curve cryptography, a significant performance gain can be achieved when hybrid coordinates are used to represent points on the elliptic curve. We provide a new area/performance tradeoff analysis of different hybrid representations over fields of characteristic two. Moreover, we present a new generic cryptoprocessor architecture that can be adapted to var...
متن کاملAn FPGA implementation of elliptic curve cryptography for future secure web transaction
Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) is an alternative to traditional techniques for public key cryptography. It offers smaller key size without sacrificing security level. In a typical elliptic curve cryptosystem, elliptic curve point multiplication is the most computationally expensive component. So it would be more attractive to implement this unit using hardware than using software. In this pa...
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 کاملA Comparison of Double Point Multiplication Algorithms and their Implementation over Binary Elliptic Curves
Efficient implementation of double point multiplication is crucial for elliptic curve cryptographic systems. We revisit three recently proposed simultaneous double point multiplication algorithms. We propose hardware architectures for these algorithms, and provide a comparative analysis of their performance. We implement the proposed architectures on Xilinx Virtex-4 FPGA, and report on the area...
