Abstract : Cryptography is the science or process used for the encryption and decryption of data that helps the users to store important information or share it across networks where it can be read only by the intended user. In this paper, Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) has been proposed because of its small key size, less memory space and high speed. Elliptic curve scalar multiplication is an important part of elliptic curve systems. Here, the scalar multiplication is performed with the help of hybrid Karatsuba multiplier as the area utilization of Karatsuba multiplier is less. An alternative of digital signature algorithm, that is, Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) along with the primary operations of elliptic curves have also been discussed in this paper.
