Secure Heap Usage for EC private key

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Long shot if someone may know.  Secure heap was added long ago for private keys for

RSA, DSA and DH however EC key generation does not seem to be included.

I see some other EC functions that use secure heap and I also noticed that the CHANGES

file stated: “Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).” which leads

me to believe there was something about EC key generation that prohibited using

secure heap. Any background on the reason for the EC omission ?

 

Thanks,

 

Barry
