Efficient Modular Reduction for NIST Prime P-256  

Chang, Nam Su (Department of Information Security, Sejong Cyber University)
Abstract
Elliptic Curves Cryptosystem(ECC) provides the same level of security with relatively small key sizes, as compared to the traditional cryptosystems. The performance of ECC over GF(2m) and GF(p) depends on the efficiency of finite field arithmetic, especially the modular multiplication which is based on the reduction algorithm. In this paper, we propose a new modular reduction algorithm which provides high-speed ECC over NIST prime P-256. Detailed experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is about 25% faster than the previous methods.
