What is a basepoint? the term is used on page 365, line two. So the analogy of a in ElGamal is a, the random number k is k. The method seems pretty straightforward. But, is it like ElGamal in that Alice cannot pick the same random integer several times over? What would the dangers of this be?
Is there an RSA implimentation using elliptic curves?
I am looking forward to tomorrow's lecture and learning about identity based encryption. It was somewhat revelatory when I read that even though a message can be signed by a system, the person might deny that it is their system, that someone else made a system and ascribed it to them.
