Abstract:
Systems, methods, and software can be used to generate elliptic curve points. In some aspect, the method includes: selecting a field size of 8^91+5; selecting a curve equation that is compatible to the field size; using, by a hardware processor, the selected field size to generate an elliptic curve point; and using, by the hardware processor, the elliptic curve point in an Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) operation.
