摘要：Information Security plays a key role in the field of modern computing. The public Key encipherment is the security mechanism which uses the idea of separating the key used to encrypt a message from the one used to decrypt it .The most widely used and industrially accepted algorithms of Public Key Cryptosystem are RSA and ECC(Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem). Even though decades of research has been done to answer the question “Which is efficient among RSA and ECC?” there is no conclusion from the researchers yet now. Through this project, we try to answer this question by providing some experimental results and an in-depth comparison between RSA and ECC on different tradeoffs involved in choosing them such as Speed of Encryption/ Signature etc., and Platform Considerations even. This will help the industry to choose one among them.
