Abstract: ECC became one of the most widely used security standards due to it’s ability for providing more security for smaller key lengths when compared to other algorithms like RSA. Like RSA and other Algorithms ECC can’t be understood easily. This paper focuses on the fundamentals behind the working principle of ECC. This paper also proposes a deterministic method for mapping bytes to points on elliptic curve and illustrates the working of ECC encryption on text as well as image.
Keyword: Elliptic Curve, Elliptic Curve Cryptography, Encryption, and Decryption.
