In this paper we describe a simple protocol for secure delegation of the elliptic-curve pairing. A computationally limited device (typically a smart-card) will delegate the computa...
Pairing based cryptography is a new public key cryptographic scheme. An elliptic curve suitable for pairing based cryptography is called a “pairing-friendly” elliptic curve. Af...
For AES 128 security level there are several natural choices for pairing-friendly elliptic curves. In particular, as we will explain, one might choose curves with k = 9 or curves w...
This work presents a practical public-key encryption scheme that offers security under adaptive chosen-ciphertext attack (CCA) and has pseudo-random ciphertexts, i.e. ciphertexts ...
Elliptic curves with small embedding degree and large prime-order subgroup are key ingredients for implementing pairingbased cryptographic systems. Such “pairing-friendly” curv...
