Elliptic Curve Cryptography with Machine Learning

Abstract

Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) is a technology based on the arithmetic of elliptic curves used to build strong and efficient cryptosystems and infrastructures. Several ECC systems, such as the Diffie–Hellman key exchange and the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm, are deployed in real-life applications to enhance the security and efficiency of digital transactions. ECC has gained even more importance since the introduction of Bitcoin, the peer-to-peer electronic cash system, by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2008. In parallel, the integration of artificial intelligence, particularly machine learning, in various applications has increased the demand for robust cryptographic systems to ensure safety and security. In this paper, we present an overview of machine learning and Elliptic Curve Cryptography algorithms. We begin with a detailed review of the main ECC systems and evaluate their efficiency and security. Subsequently, we investigate potential applications of machine learning-based techniques to enhance the security and performance of ECC. This study includes the generation of optimal parameters for ECC systems using machine learning algorithms.
