Make your public key protocols smaller and more secure with this accessible guide to Elliptic Curve Cryptography. Elliptic Curve Cryptography for Developers introduces the mathematics of elliptic curves—a powerful alternative to the prime number-based RSA encryption standard. You’ll learn to deliver zero-knowledge proofs and aggregated multi-signatures that are not even possible with RSA mathematics. All you need is the basics of calculus you learned in high school. The book gradually introduces the concepts and subroutines you’ll need to master with diagrams, flow charts, and accessible language. Each chapter builds on what you’ve already learned, with step-by-step guidance until you’re ready to write embedded systems code with advanced mathematical algorithms. The Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) protocol secures everything from credit card transactions to the blockchain. With a little C code, high school calculus, and the techniques in this book, you can implement ECC cryptographic protocols that are smaller and more secure than the RSA-based systems in common use today. Readers need to understand basic calculus. Examples in C.
