Tiivistelmä
The thesis was commissioned by Key Revolution Inc. to research Elliptic Curve Cryptography and it’s possible implementation in the current application. The goal of the thesis was to implement an Elliptic Curve module for iOS and expose it’s methods to the JavaScript side of the React Native.
The author researched the meaning of cryptography in general, Elliptic Curve Cryptography and a simplified math mathematics of the elliptic curves.
The researcher implemented an Elliptic Curve Cryptography module for iOS. The module contained implementations for the key generation, encryption of a string and decryption of a string. He exposed implemented methods to the React Native side via the “bridge” and used those functions in an example app to test the result.
Finally, the author ponders about the results of the research and the future development possibilities of the prototyped module.
