In discussing the Visual Studio Code Name "Orcas" January 2007 CTP I mentioned its managed classes for Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman and Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm cryptographic ...
A public key cryptography method that provides fast decryption and digital signature processing. Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) uses points on an elliptic curve to derive a 163-bit public key that ...
We all know the usual jokes about the ‘S’ in ‘IoT’ standing for ‘Security’. It’s hardly a secret that security in embedded, networked devices (‘IoT devices’) is all too often a last-minute task that ...
Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) has emerged as a favoured approach in modern cryptography, notably due to its ability to deliver robust security with relatively small key sizes. Extensive hardware ...
In this paper, the authors propose an efficient and simpler Contributory Group Key Agreement protocol (CGKA) based on Elliptic Curve Diffie Hellman (ECDH). In this CGKA protocol, a member acts as a ...
Sometimes, it can take a decade or more before you get to say “I told you so.” Just ask Scott Vanstone. The founder of Certicom Corp. shifted his company from standard public-key cryptography systems ...
According to one of the world’s leading cryptographers, Bitcoin’s elliptic curve could have a secret backdoor, invalidating all underlying security. A Bitcoin public key is created by applying ...
Editor's note: See the original article on PurpleAlientPlanet. Some of my research is focused on the implementation issues of elliptic curve cryptography on embedded systems. Since I often have to ...
[Daljeet Nandha] from [RoboCoffee] writes to us, sharing his research on cryptographic signature-based firmware authenticity checks recently added to the Xiaomi Mi scooter firmware. Those scooters use ...
