Applicability of Elliptic Curve Cryptography on Internet of Things

Elliptic Curve Cryptography on FPGAs

An elliptic curve Key Management Scheme for Internet of Things

The Internet of Things (IOT) is the network of physical entities, such as wireless sensors, and radio frequency identification (RFID). Due to the rapid progress of the hardware and software in the last decade, Internet of Things is an emerging area of research. However, protecting the privacy in IoT networks is very challenging due to the heterogeneous nature of the IoT entities. Due to the low...

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...

Elliptic Curve Cryptography

There is a re-emerging demand for low-end devices such as 8-bit processors, driven by needs for pervasive applications like sensor networks and RF-ID tags. Security in pervasive applications, however, has been a major concern for their widespread acceptance. Public-key cryptosystems (PKC) like RSA and DSA generally involve computation-intensive arithmetic operations with operand sizes of 1024 −...
