Design of ECSEPP: Elliptic curve based secure E-cash payment protocol

Abstract

The present scenario in the area of e-commerce the most popular term is E-cash. E-cash is developed to allow fully anonymous secure electronic cash transfer to support online trading between buyers and sellers. E-cash transfer system has helped us to make transaction electronically. In this paper we propose an elliptic curve based secure e-cash payment protocol. The proposed system secures the transactions not only by the nature of the curve but also makes use of the hash function to enhance the desired security measure. It also ensures mutual authentication, anonymity, non-repudiation and traceability of the users.
