IMPLEMENTATION OF ELLIPTIC - CURVE CRYPTOGRAPHY

Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) is a procedure to generate public key between two distant partners namely, Alice and Bob used in public key cryptography. This method is based on the algebraic structure of elliptic curves over finite fields. ECC is important in the sense that it involve keys of smaller length in comparison to other non-Elliptic curve cryptography to provide equivalent security. During this work, we implement an algorithm in python programming language to generate public key using the method of ECC.
