Workshop on Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC)

ECC is an annual workshops dedicated to the study of elliptic curve cryptography and related areas. Since the first ECC workshop, held 1997 in Waterloo, the ECC conference series has broadened its scope beyond elliptic curve cryptography and now covers a wide range of areas within modern cryptography. For instance, past ECC conferences included presentations on hyperelliptic curve cryptography, pairing-based cryptography, side-channel attacks, voting protocols, quantum key distribution, AES, hash functions, and implementation issues.
The ECC Workshops has invited presentations only. Presentations tend to give an overview on emerging or established areas of modern cryptography, often combined with new research findings.

Upcoming ECC Workshops

• ECC 2012 will be organized in Queretaro, Mexico, October 28-31. The main organizers are Neal Koblitz, Francisco Rodríguez-Henríquez, Horacio Tapia Recillas.
  ECC 2012 will be preceded by a summer school on Elliptic Curve Cryptography and its applications.
