On its own, Elliptic Curve Cryptography is just mathematical equations. To make it useful for security, it must be put into algorithms, such as the ones listed below.

Digital Signatures

  • ECDSA: Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm
  • ECPVS: Elliptic Curve Pintsov Vanstone Signatures
  • ECNR: Elliptic Curve Nyberg Rueppel

Key Agreement

  • ECMQV: Elliptic Curve Menezes-Qu-Vanstone
  • ECDH: Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman

Encryption

  • ECIES: Elliptic Curve Integrated Encryption Standard
