Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm

Written by Dominik Joe Pantůček on 2018-06-07

After slightly going astray from the elliptically curved path on our favorite doughnuts, we return from the realm of electronic mail to much more interesting world of mathematics. Today, our effort to explain elliptic curves in simple Weierstrass form and their usage should reach its second culmination. With Diffie-Hellman key exchange explained, the only part that is missing is some digital signature scheme. So please read on to find the beauty of the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm beast.
