A study on the application of Elliptic - Curve cryptography in ¥implementing smart cards

Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 1

Abstract

 Elliptic curve cryptography is one of the emerging techniques that stand as an alternative for conventional public key cryptography. Elliptic curve cryptography has several applications of which smart cards are also one among them. A smart card is nothing but a single chip that contains microprocessor components. Smart cards are mainly used for secured sign-on in big organizations. The security feature of smart card is provided by elliptic curve cryptography. Elliptic curve cryptography for smart cards can be implemented through several ways. Of them implementation using Galois Field is one of the very famous techniques. This essay discusses in detail how elliptic curve cryptography is implemented in smart cards using a concept called Galois finite field
