IEEE 1363-2000 - IEEE Standard Specifications for Public-Key Cryptography

Standard Details

This standard specifies common public-key cryptographic techniques, including mathematical primitives for secret value (key) derivation, public-key encryption, and digital signatures, and cryptographic schemes based on those primitives. It also specifies related cryptographic parameters, public keys, and private keys. The purpose of this standard is to provide a reference for specifications on a variety of techniques from which applications may select.

Active Projects	Active P1363.3-2013/Cor 1 - Standard for Identity-Based Cryptographic Techniques Using Pairings - Corrigendum 1: Corrections to Citations This document specifies identity-based cryptographic schemes based on the bilinear mappings over elliptic curves known as pairings. Specific techniques include algorithms to compute the pairings and specification of recommended elliptic curves and curve parameters over which the pairings are defined. The class of computer and communications systems is not restricted.
Existing Standards	Active 1363a-2004 - IEEE Standard Specifications for Public-Key Cryptography - Amendment 1: Additional Techniques Amendment to IEEE Std 1363-2000, this standard specifies additional public-key cryptographic techniques beyond those in IEEE Std 1363-2000. It is intended to be merged with IEEE Std 1363-2000 during future revisions.
	Active 1363.1-2008 - IEEE Standard Specification for Public Key Cryptographic Techniques Based on Hard Problems over Lattices Specifications of common public-key cryptographic techniques based on hard problems over lattices supplemental to those considered in IEEE 1363 and IEEE P1363a, including mathematical primitives for secret value (key) derivation, public-key encryption, identification and digital signatures, and cryptographic schemes based on those primitives. Specifications of related cryptographic parameters, public keys and private keys. Class of computer and communications systems is not restricted.
	Active 1363.3-2013 - IEEE Standard for Identity-Based Cryptographic Techniques using Pairings Common identity-based public-key cryptographic techniques that use pairings, including mathematical primitives for secret value (key) derivation, public-key encryption, and digital signatures, as well as cryptographic schemes based on those primitives are specified in this standard. Also, related cryptographic parameters, public keys and private keys, are specified. The purpose of this standard is to provide a reference for specifications of a variety of techniques from which applications may select.
	Active 1363.2-2008 - IEEE Standard Specification for Password-Based Public-Key Cryptographic Techniques This standard covers specifications of public-key cryptographic techniques for password-based authentication and key establishment, supplemental to the techniques described in IEEE Std 1363-2000 and IEEE Std 1363a-2004. It is intended as a companion standard to IEEE Std 1363-2000 and IEEE Std 1363a-2004. It includes specifications of primitives and schemes designed to utilize passwords and other low-grade secrets as a basis for securing electronic transactions, including schemes for password-authenticated key agreement and password-authenticated key retrieval.
