-Description: Pairing-Based Cryptography Library
- Pairing-based cryptography is a relatively young area of cryptography that
- revolves around a certain function with special properties.
- The PBC (Pairing-Based Cryptography) library is a free C library (released
- under the Lesser GNU Public License) built on the GMP library that performs
- the mathematical operations underlying pairing-based cryptosystem.
- The PBC library is designed to be the backbone of implementations of
- pairing-based cryptosystems, thus speed and portability are important goals.
- It provides routines such as elliptic curve generation, elliptic curve
- arithmetic and pairing computation. Thanks to the GMP library, despite being
- written in C, pairings times are reasonable.
- The API is abstract enough that the PBC library can be used even if the
- programmer possesses only an elementary understanding of pairings. There is
- no need to learn about elliptic curves or much of number theory. (The minimum
- requirement is some knowledge of cyclic groups and properties of the
- pairing.)
- This tutorial shows how to implement a pairing-based cryptosystem in a few
- lines using the PBC library.
- The PBC library can also be used to build conventional cryptosystems.
