Abstract:
This paper proposed a dynamic scalable cryptosystem based on reduced key size Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) used for low-cost mobile devices or Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)-like devices, which are extremely constrained in memory, computing power and battery life. Supplementary algorithms including dynamic parameter assigning, random base point selection and session base point synchronization are designed in order to enhance the security level of the system. Synchronization is also performed for the consistency of the curve used between the server and the client. The proposed approach will provide a composite p-sec of (110+22) = 132 >128 and requires less storage and computing power, which provides good security alternative for the wireless transformation between devices with simpler and smaller processors.
