Key Management Using Elliptic Curve Diffie Hellman Curve 25519

Abstract

Key management shows an important role in the information transmissions. This paper analyzes the more improved and cost-effective key management scheme with respect to transmission overhead, computation cost. A key management policy is effectually employed for the purpose of generating a distinctive convention key for ample members to promise the security of their prospect communications, and this agreement can be allied in cloud computing for the purpose of assisting protected and skilled data distribution. The Key exchange protocols provides the two or more members to decide on a shared secret key and later be able to used for encrypting a long message. The complexity of Discrete Logarithm Problem (DLP) as basic problem considered in Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange Protocol. The Elliptic curve Diffie-Helman (ECDH) is considered as an expansion to the standard Diffie-Hellman. The ECDH function is ideal for a wide range of cryptographic functions. Key management based on ECDH provides much security on key meanwhile having more amount of storage cost and execution time involving in this. The ECDH Curve 25519 makes much faster in execution and lesser storage cost due its structure which uses much higher prime group of the order 2252.
