Funded Activity Summary

RNS Hardware for Public-Key Cryptography and E-security. In a world where electronic communication is ever-present, the security of electronic information, e-security, is an issue of the utmost concern for government, business and individuals alike. Public-key cryptography is a powerful tool in the e-security toolkit. Using this technology it is possible to confirm the identity of individuals, maintain the privacy of personal data and guarantee the authenticity of transactions. The aim of this project is to design new public-key cryptography hardware to provide faster, more secure communications for computers, networks and smart cards. Achieving this will require innovations in the way computers perform arithmetic and how this arithmetic is realised as an integrated circuit.
