Summary :

This paper proposes RSA-type cryptosystems over elliptic curves En(O, b) and En(a, O),where En(a, b): y2 x3+ax+b (mod n),and n is a product of from-free primes p and q. Although RSA cryptosystem is not secure against a low exponent attack, RSA-type cryptosystems over elliptic curves seems secure against a low multiplier attack. There are the KMOV cryptosystem and the Demytko cryptosystem that were previously proposed as RSA-type cryptosystems over elliptic curves. The KMOV cryptosystem uses form-restricted primes as p q 2(mod 3)or p q 3(mod 4), and encrypts/decrypts a 2log n-bit message over varied elliptic curves by operating values of x and y coordinates. The Demytko cryptosystem, which is an extension of the KMOV cryptosystem, uses form-free primes, and encrypts/decrypts a log n-bit message over fixed elliptic curves by operating only a value of x coordinates. Our cryptosystems, which are other extensions fo the KMOV cryptosystem, encrypt/decrypt a 2log n-bit message over varied elliptic curves by operating values of x and y coordinates. The Demytko cryptosystem and our cryptosystems have higher security than the KMOV cryptosystem because from-free primes hide two-bit information about prime factors. The encryption/decryption speed in one of our cryptosystems is about 1.25 times faster than that in the Demytko cryptosystem.
