Question
What is the advantage or trade-off of Ellip-
tic Curve Cryptography versus RSA Cryp-
tography?
The mathematics behind Elliptic Curve Crptography is much simplier than that of RSA
Cryptography.
Elliptic Curve Cryptography uses symmetric encryption while RSA Cryptography uses
asymmetric encryption.
Public key operations are faster with Elliptic Curve Cryptography than in RSA
Cryptography
The same level of security may be achieved in Elliptic Curve Cryptography while using
a shorter, faster key than RSA Cryptography.
