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 ...

Encryption is a key technology for federal agencies. Although encryption is the primary goal, many encryption systems depend on a combination of tools to accomplish other tasks. Public-key ...

The elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem (ECDLP) lies at the heart of modern public-key cryptography. It concerns the challenge of determining an unknown scalar multiplier given two points on an ...

Encryption forms the backbone of digital security but now faces a fundamental challenge: the emergence of quantum computers.

This chapter excerpted from Hardware Implementation of Finite-Field Arithmetic, gives an example of finite-field application—namely, the implementation of the scalar product (point multiplication) ...

The Signal Foundation, maker of the Signal Protocol that encrypts messages sent by more than a billion people, has rolled out an update designed to prepare for a very real prospect that’s never far ...

Author Nick Sullivan worked for six years at Apple on many of its most important cryptography efforts before recently joining CloudFlare, where he is a systems engineer. He has a degree in mathematics ...
