Elliptic Curve Cryptography in less than 5 minutes

ECC, or Elliptic Curve Cryptography, is the most secure and modern way of doing Cryptography. But what is it really? What are the most important parts of understanding ECC? In this video, we give you the framework for seeing that ECC is really not all that different from the Cryptography you might already be familiar with. // CHAPTERS 0:00 - Intro 0:25 - Review of Asymmetric Cryptography 1:03 - What is an Elliptic Curve? 1:45 - Points on a Curve as values in Math formulas 2:09 - RSA, DSA, and DH 3:02 - ECRSA, ECDSA, and ECDH 3:27 - ECC is more secure, and require smaller keys 3:58 - Outro / Summary // FULL SERIES - Cryptography Essentials // This video is part of a 16-part series covering the essentials of modern Cryptography.
