| | | | | Elliptic curves (EC) have become one of the most useful tools for modern cryptography. They were proposed in the 1980s and became widespread used after 2004. Its main advantage is that it offers smaller key sizes to attain the same level of security of other methods, resulting in smaller storage | |

| | | | | [AI summary] The text provides an in-depth explanation of elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), covering fundamental concepts such as elliptic curves over finite fields, point addition, cyclic subgroups, subgroup orders, and the discrete logarithm problem. It also discusses practical aspects like finding base points, cofactors, and the importance of choosing subgroups with high order for cryptographic security. The text emphasizes that ECC relies on the difficulty of solving the discrete logarithm problem on elliptic curves, which is considered computationally hard and forms the basis for secure cryptographic protocols like ECDH and ECDSA. | |

| | | The elliptic curve digital signature algorithm (ECDSA) is a common digital signature scheme that we see in many of our code reviews. It has some desirable properties, but can also be very fragile. For example, LadderLeak was published just a couple of weeks ago, which demonstrated the feasibility of key recovery with a side channel [...] | ||
