Requirements for Standard Elliptic Curves

Manfred Lochter, Johannes Merkle, Jörn-Marc Schmidt, and Torsten Schütze

Abstract

Currently, the Internet Research Task Force (IRTF) discusses requirements for new elliptic curves to be standardized in TLS and other internet protocols. This position paper discusses the view of the members of the ECC Brainpool on these requirements, in particular with respect to hardware implementations.
