A Comparative Study of RSA and ECC

Abstract

Network is a collection of interconnected nodes which are spread over a large region. A node can be any device such as personal computer, mobile phone, tablet, WAP devices, pager, etc. Data is transmitted over channel of this network, which is prone to security threats such as loss of confidentiality, loss of integrity, fabrication attacks, etc. So, there is a need to secure this data transmission. It is achieved through Cryptography [9].The present work focuses on cryptography to secure the data while transmitting in the network. Firstly, the data which is to be transmitted from sender to receiver in the network must be encrypted using the encryption algorithm in cryptography. Secondly, by using decryption technique the receiver can view the original data. Many research papers have been submitted on this cryptographic algorithm.This paper aims at study of the two asymmetric-key algorithms i.e. Rivest-Shamir-Adlemann (RSA) and Elliptic-Curve cryptography (ECC).A comparative analysis of both the algorithms has been done and observed that RSA is one of the effective public key cryptographic algorithms, which needs time and memory whereas ECC provides a strong alternative with smaller key lengths and more secure [1][2].
