Guide to Elliptic Curve Cryptography (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

After 18 years of research and development, elliptic curve cryptography has gained widespread exposure and acceptance in the commercial world. Industry, banking, and government standards have been drafted to facilitate widespread deployment.

This book is the first to provide a comprehensive treatment of the practical aspects of elliptic curve cryptography. It explains the basic mathematics, provides detailed descriptions of state-in-the-art in methods for efficient implementation, and presents standardized protocols for public-key encryption, digital signatures, and key establishment. Also considered are some issues that arise in software and hardware implementation, side-channel attacks and countermeasures, and efficient parameter generation.

Written by professors who have extensive experience studying the security of elliptic curve cryptography, its implementation, and industrial applications, this book is an important resource for security professionals, developers, and implementers.

A broad overview and guide to one of the most widely used cryptosystems in wireless devices and smartcards today. The authors are some of the key researchers and developers of the EEC standards technology. Essential reference for any practitioners or professionals incomputer science, computer engineering, network design, and network/data security.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"It is the first book to give a comprehensive and careful presentation of all the implementation issues involved with ECC. ... The book contains chapters on implementing finite field arithmetic ... . There is also an extensive chapter on engineering considerations ... . is very clearly written and numerous algorithms are presented in a format suitable for easy implementations. The book will be useful for engineers and computer scientists who want to know about the important issues in implementing ECC." (Steven D. Galbraith, Mathematical Reviews, 2005)

"This book is entirely dedicated to elliptic curve cryptography. It starts - after a short overview - with finite field arithmetic ... . The book is a guide for security professionals and developers ... . It is very carefully written and may serve as a reference book for mathematicians as well." (J. Schoissengeier, Monatshefte für Mathematik, Vol. 144 (1), 2005)

"This is a very useful handbook for anybody who is or must be interested in practical elliptic curve cryptography and its applications. ... is presented in a rather non-theoretical way and at a beginner to intermediate level. On the other hand, researchers should find the book useful because of the extensive survey of the related literature (each chapter ends with notes and further references, the bibliography containing almost 500 items)." (EMS Newsletter, September, 2005)

Aus den Rezensionen: "Die Arithmetik ellipitischer [sic] Kurven hat innerhalb der letzten zehn Jahre im Bereich der Public-Key-Kryptographie zahlreiche Anwendungen gefunden, das Angebot an einführender Literatur zu diesem Thema ist aber nach wie vor gering. ... Mit dem 'Guide to Elliptic Curve Cryptography' ... liegt nun eine gründliche Einführung in die anwendungsbezogenen Aspekte dieses Themas vor. ... Insgesamt meiner Meinung ein unverzichtbares Werk für jeden, der sich ernsthaft mit praktischer EC-Kryptographie befassen oder sein Wissen auf den aktuellen Stand bringen möchte ..." (R. Gerkmann, in: Jahrbericht der Deutschen Mathematiker-Vereinigung, 2007, Vol. 107, Issue 1, S. 2-3)
