  2. Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_Curve_Digital...

    This implementation failure was used, for example, to extract the signing key used for the PlayStation 3 gaming-console. [3] Another way ECDSA signature may leak private keys is when is generated by a faulty random number generator. Such a failure in random number generation caused users of Android Bitcoin Wallet to lose their funds in August 2013.

  3. Elliptic-curve cryptography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic-curve_cryptography

    Elliptic-curve cryptography (ECC) is an approach to public-key cryptography based on the algebraic structure of elliptic curves over finite fields.ECC allows smaller keys to provide equivalent security, compared to cryptosystems based on modular exponentiation in Galois fields, such as the RSA cryptosystem and ElGamal cryptosystem.

  4. Digital Signature Algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Signature_Algorithm

    The Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) is a public-key cryptosystem and Federal Information Processing Standard for digital signatures, based on the mathematical concept of modular exponentiation and the discrete logarithm problem.

  5. EdDSA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EdDSA

    In the signature schemes DSA and ECDSA, this nonce is traditionally generated randomly for each signature—and if the random number generator is ever broken and predictable when making a signature, the signature can leak the private key, as happened with the Sony PlayStation 3 firmware update signing key. [11] [12] [13] [14]

  6. Let's Encrypt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let's_Encrypt

    Let's Encrypt developers planned to generate an ECDSA root key back in 2015, [44] but then pushed back the plan to early 2016, then to 2019, and finally to 2020. On September 3, 2020, Let’s Encrypt issued six new certificates: one new ECDSA root named "ISRG Root X2", four intermediates, and one cross-sign.

  7. ssh-keygen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ssh-keygen

    Requests changing the passphrase of a private key file instead of creating a new private key. -t Specifies the type of key to create (e.g., rsa). -o Use the new OpenSSH format. -q quiets ssh-keygen. It is used by the /etc/rc file while creating a new key. -N Provides a new Passphrase. -B Dumps the key's fingerprint in Bubble Babble format. -l

  8. Digital signature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_signature

    G (key-generator) generates a public key (pk), and a corresponding private key (sk), on input 1 n, where n is the security parameter. S (signing) returns a tag, t, on the inputs: the private key (sk), and a string (x). V (verifying) outputs accepted or rejected on the inputs: the public key (pk), a string (x), and a tag (t).

  9. Elliptic curve point multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_curve_point...

    Machines running cryptographic implementations consume variable amounts of time to process different inputs and so the timings vary based on the encryption key. To resolve this issue, cryptographic algorithms are implemented in a way which removes data dependent variable timing characteristic from the implementation leading to the so called ...
