Understanding Elliptic Curve cryptography
Details
If "Elliptic Curve Encryption" is a magical black box to you, hopefully by the end of this event it will no longer be so.
Elliptic Curves are increasingly used in security and cryptography. For instance, Bitcoin is based on elliptic curve yy = xx*x + 7 and Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key exchange is the only kind that works in HTML5. However, Elliptic Curves can be difficult to understand if you don't have a degree in mathematics. In this session, I will explain this type of cryptography in an intuitive way.
