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 ...

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) ...

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 ...

The Internet of Things (IoT), including embedded industrial sensors, smart lighting, and monitoring systems, can be invaluable for the enterprise. These devices tend to have minimal power demands, can ...
