    • 6.    Alice and Bob now share a secret (the number 2).
      Both Alice and Bob have arrived at the same value s, because, under mod p,
      Diffie–Hellman key agreement is not limited to negotiating a key shared by only two participants. Any number of users can take part in an agreement by performing iterations of the agreement protocol and exchanging intermediate data (which does not itself need to be kept secret). For example, Alice, Bob, and Carol could participate in a Diffie–Hellman agreement as follows, with all operations taken to be modulo p:

    • ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]ABSTRACTSecuring a network wired or wireless for network administrator has been a big challenges for network administrators in the present day of Internet usage. This project presents ECDSA Cryptosystem as a solution to the problem been faced by network administrators and Engineers. The Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) is the elliptic curve analogue of the Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) with the attractiveness that there is no sub exponential algorithm known to solve the ell ...

The target of the attacks and intrusion on the network are computers, so once the intruders succeed, it will c ... Continue reading---

         

      CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 11 ]Simple packet filters selectively controls the flow of packets in/out of a network or between networks. Control is based and enforced through a series of rules. These rules are based on information stored in the IP and TCP/UDP/ICMP headers.Rule criteria can be based on the following characteristics of the IP packet:➢    Source and/or destination addresses➢    Protocol including TCP, UDP, ICMP, or all IP➢    TCP or UDP source and/or destination ports➢    ICMP messa ...

      CHAPTER FOUR - [ Total Page(s): 10 ]Step 3: verifying the signatureAt this stage the program try to verify the signature weather it’s correct or not. It will display VALID or INVALID to ascertain the validity.Result:The result above what gotten using Secp256kr1 algorithm as shown above, the private and public key was gotten based on previous work inculcated into the database for the key generation and FRANCIS was used as the message string in other to get a signature value. ...

      CHAPTER FIVE - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]CHAPTER FIVESUMMARY, CONCLUSION, AND RECOMMENDATIONElliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) which is one of the variants of Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) proposed as an alternative to established public key systems such as Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) and Rivest Shamir Adleman (RSA), have recently gained a lot of attention in industry and academia.The main reason for the attractiveness of ECDSA is the fact that there is no sub exponential algorith known to solve the elliptic c ...
