ELLIPTIC-CURVE CRYPTOGRAPHY (ECC) AND ARGON2 ALGORITHM IN PHP USING OPENSSL AND SODIUM LIBRARIES

Abstract

This paper presents the elliptic-curve cryptography (ECC) and Argon2 algorithm in PHP using OpenSSL and Sodium cryptographic libraries. The vital part of this thesis presents an analysis of the efficiency of elliptic-curve cryptography (ECC) and the Argon2 hashing algorithm in the Sodium library, depending on the variation of initiation parameters.
