Elliptic Curve Cryptography in Practice
Hosted by Papers We Love, Montreal
Details
Brendan Cordy will present Bos et al.'s "Elliptic Curve Cryptography in Practice" (https://eprint.iacr.org/2013/734.pdf). Aside from the already interesting contents of this paper (which discusses Bitcoin, SSH, TLS, and the PS3's famous security failure, among other things), he will show some code to demonstrate elliptic code arithmetic, ECDSA, and querying the blockchain.
