Threshold signature is very important in identity authentication and some other applications. In December 2010, Chinese Encryption Administration released the SM2 elliptic curve digital signature algorithm as the first standard of the digital signature algorithm in China. At present, the papers on the threshold signature scheme based on this algorithm are few. A SM2 elliptic curve threshold signature scheme without a trusted center is proposed according to the Joint-Shamir-RSS algorithm, the Joint-Shamir-ZSS algorithm, the sum or diff-SS algorithm, the Mul-SS algorithm, the Inv-SS algorithm and the PM-SS algorithm. The proposed scheme is analyzed from correctness, security and efficiency. The correctness analysis shows that the proposed scheme can realize the effective threshold signature. The security analysis shows that the proposed scheme can resist some kinds of common attacks. The efficiency analysis shows that if the same secret sharing algorithms are used to design the threshold signature schemes, the SM2 elliptic curve threshold signature scheme will be more efficient than the threshold signature scheme based on ECDSA.

In this paper, after the crypto acceleration board of the server-termination type is designed, we implement the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm on the board that serves data integrity and user authentication. For implementing ECDSA, we use crypto co-processor, MPC180, to reduce the computation burden of main Processor (MPC860) on the board. By using crypto co-processor, the computation efficiency in case prime field is improved more between 90 and 100 times than the software library and between 20 and 90 times in case binary field. Our result is expect to apply for SSL acceleration board.

This paper describes an integrated H/W-S/W implementation of elliptic curve digital signature algorithm (EC-DSA) using a security system-on-chip (SoC). The security SoC uses the Cortex-A53 APU as CPU, and the hardware IPs of high-performance elliptic curve cryptography (HP-ECC) core and SHA3 (secure hash algorithm 3) hash function core are interfaced via AXI4-Lite bus protocol. The signature generation and verification processes of EC-DSA were verified by the implementation of the security SoC on a Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC device.

In this paper we discuss the Construction Of 3 new extension field of characteristic odd and analyze the complexity of arithmetic operations over such a field. Also we show that it is suitable for Elliptic Curve Cryptosystems(ECC) and Digital Signature Algorithm(DSA, 〔7〕) as an underlying field. In particular, our digital signature scheme is at least twice as efficient as DSA.

Electronic cash is used as a payment tool for contents purchase in mobile electronic commerce environment. In order to protect customer`s privacy, we use blind signature. Blind signature has an anonymity property since it does not allow connection between customer`s ID and customer`s message. In this paper, we propose an blind signature scheme using elliptic curve algorithm based on Cap Diffie-Hellman Problem. Proposed scheme efficiently improved against existing blind signature scheme by reducing communication and computation time of the process.

In this paper, we implement Microsoft COM software modules for elliptic curve cryptographic applications and analyze its performance. The implemented COM software modules support all elliptic curve key exchange protocols and elliptic curve digital signature algorithm in IEEE 1363 finite fields GF(p) and GF(2m). Since the implemented software modules intend to focus on a component-based software development method, and thus it have a higher productivity and take systematic characteristics to be open outward and to be standardized. Accordingly, it enable a software to be developed easier and faster rather than a method using C library. In addition it support the Microsoft COM interface, we can easily implement secure software applications based on elliptic curve cryptographic algorithms.

This paper describes the hardware implementation of elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) used as a core operation in elliptic curve digital signature algorithm (ECDSA). The ECC processor supports eight operation modes (four point operations, four modular operations) on the NIST P-521 curve. In order to minimize computation complexity required for point scalar multiplication (PSM), the radix-4 Booth encoding scheme and modified Jacobian coordinate system were adopted, which was based on the complexity analysis for five PSM algorithms and four different coordinate systems. Modular multiplication was implemented using a modified 3-Way Toom-Cook multiplication and a modified fast reduction algorithm. The ECC processor was implemented on xczu7ev FPGA device to verify hardware operation. Hardware resources of 101,921 LUTs, 18,357 flip-flops and 101 DSP blocks were used, and it was evaluated that about 370 PSM operations per second were achieved at a maximum operation clock frequency of 45 MHz.

A security SoC that can be used to implement elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) based public-key infrastructures was designed. The security SoC has an architecture in which a hardware accelerator for the elliptic curve digital signature algorithm (ECDSA) is interfaced with the Cortex-A53 CPU using the AXI4-Lite bus. The ECDSA hardware accelerator, which consists of a high-performance ECC processor, a SHA3 hash core, a true random number generator (TRNG), a modular multiplier, BRAM, and control FSM, was designed to perform the high-performance computation of ECDSA signature generation and signature verification with minimal CPU control. The security SoC was implemented in the Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC device to perform hardware-software co-verification, and it was evaluated that the ECDSA signature generation or signature verification can be achieved about 1,000 times per second at a clock frequency of 150 MHz. The ECDSA hardware accelerator was implemented using hardware resources of 74,630 LUTs, 23,356 flip-flops, 32kb BRAM, and 36 DSP blocks.

In this paper, we revisit a generally accepted opinion: implementing Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem (ECC) over GF$(2^m)$ on sensor motes using small word size is not appropriate because partial XOR multiplication over GF$(2^m)$ is not efficiently supported by current low-powered microprocessors. Although there are some implementations over GF$(2^m)$ on sensor motes, their performances are not satisfactory enough due to the redundant memory accesses that result in inefficient field multiplication and reduction. Therefore, we propose some techniques for reducing unnecessary memory access instructions. With the proposed strategies, the running time of field multiplication and reduction over GF$(2^{163})$ can be decreased by 21.1% and 24.7%, respectively. These savings noticeably decrease execution times spent in Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) operations (Signing and verification) by around $15{\sim}19%$.

본 논문에서는 자바 카드용 ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptosystems) 및 ECDSA (Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm) 알고리즘 구현 및 시험 결과에 대해 언급하고자 한다. 163비트 타원곡선 암호시스템(ECC)은 현재 많이 사용되고 있는 RSA 1024 비트 이상의 안전성을 보장한다. 또한, 짧은 키 길이를 사용하기 때문에 메모리와 처리능력이 제한된 스마트 카드나 이동 통신 등과 같은 분야에서 매우 유용하게 사용될 수 있으며, ECC나 ECDSA를 자바 카드 상에 구현하여 사용함으로써 사용자들은 보다 강화된 보안성과 안전성을 제공받을 수 있을 것이다.
