The Impact

In this paper, we present a highly optimized implementation of elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) over NIST P-256 curve for an 8-bit AVR microcontroller. For improving the performance of ECC implementation, we focus on optimizing field arithmetics. In particular, we optimize the modular multiplication and squaring method exploiting the state-of-the-art optimization technique, namely range shifted representation (RSR). With optimized field arithmetics, we significantly improve the performance of scalar multiplication and set the speed record for execution time of variable base scalar multiplication over NIST P-256 curve. When compared with previous works, we achieve a performance gain of 17.3% over the best previous result on the same platform. Moreover, the execution time of our result is even faster than that over the NIST P-192 curve of the well-known TinyECC library. Our result shows that RSR can be applied to all field arithmetics and evaluate the impact of the adoption of RSR over the performance of scalar multiplication. Additionally, our implementation provides a high degree of regularity to withstand side-channel attacks.

This paper proposes a hardware-efficient elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) architecture over GF(p), which uses adders to achieve scalar multiplication (SM) through hardware-reuse method. In terms of algorithm, the improvement of the interleaved modular multiplication (IMM) algorithm and the binary modular inverse (BMI) algorithm needs two adders. In addition to the adder, the data register is another optimize target. The design compiler is synthesized on 0.13 µm CMOS ASIC platform. The time range of performing scalar multiplication over 160, 192, 224, and 256 field orders under 150 MHz frequency is 1.99–3.17 ms. Moreover, the gate area required for different field orders in this design is in the range of 35.65k–59.14k, with 50%–91% hardware resource less than other processors.

Many shares are generated from the secret images that are illogical containing certain message within them in visual cryptography. When all shares are piled jointly, they tend to expose the secret of the image. The multiple shares are used to transfer the secret image by using the encryption and decryption process by means of the elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) technique. In ECC method, the public key is randomly generated in the encryption process and decryption process, the private key ([Formula: see text]) is generated by utilizing the optimization technique and for evaluating the performance of the optimization by using the peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR). From the test results, the PSNR has been exposed to be 65.73057, also the mean square error (MSE) value is 0.017367 and the correlation coefficient (CC) is 1 for the decrypted image without any distortion of the original image and the optimal PSNR value is attained using the cuckoo search (CS) algorithm when compared with the existing works.

Abstract Modular multiplication is one of the most time-consuming operations that account for almost 80% of computational overhead in a scalar multiplication in elliptic curve cryptography. In this paper, we present a new speed record for modular multiplication over 192-bit NIST prime P-192 on 8-bit AVR ATmega microcontrollers. We propose a new integer representation named Range Shifted Representation (RSR) which enables an efficient merging of the reduction operation into the subtractive Karatsuba multiplication. This merging results in a dramatic optimization in the intermediate accumulation of modular multiplication by reducing a significant amount of unnecessary memory access as well as the number of addition operations. Our merged modular multiplication on RSR is designed to have two duplicated groups of 96-bit intermediate values during accumulation. Hence, only one accumulation of the group is required and the result can be used twice. Consequently, we significantly reduce the number of load/store instructions which are known to be one of the most time-consuming operations for modular multiplication on constrained devices. Our implementation requires only 2888 cycles for the modular multiplication of 192-bit integers and outperforms the previous best result for modular multiplication over P-192 by a factor of 17%. In addition, our modular multiplication is even faster than the Karatsuba multiplication (without reduction) which achieved a speed record for multiplication on AVR processor.

The scalar multiplication techniques used in Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) are having the scope for gaining the computation efficiency. This is possible through the reduction of precomputed operations. Finding the more efficient technique compares to the most recent or efficient one is a research gap for all schemes. The manuscript presents an application oriented work for Telemedicine using ECC. It is based on robust application on reduced computational complexity. The methodology we apply for the same is Scalar Multiplication without precomputation on Radix-8. Introduced software and the hardware performance are reporting a big advantage over all the related proposed techniques. The reason to cover this problem is to provide a path on a fascinating area of ECC on a smaller key size be applicable for all applications on a same level of security strengths. The smaller length key gives the higher speed and shorter clock cycle to initiate the operation.
