ECLIPSES

Elliptical curves and calculations resistant to physical attacks.


ECLIPSES is meant to address all these limitations by providing a groundbreaking design for an elliptic-curve hardware coprocessor which exactly fits the computational needs of EC-based cryptosystems: basic point operations, scalar multiplication and hardware-supported pairing computations on the widest range of elliptic curves. The ECLIPSES cryptoprocessor shall inherently and transparently resist the most advanced techniques of side-channel analysis and fault-based attacks while reaching unprecedented throughputs with a minimal number of gates, thus opening the way to a new generation of EC-supporting cryptographic platforms and promoting (the switch from RSA to) a wide adoption of elliptic curve cryptography on the security marketplace.
