Experimenting with Faster Elliptic Curves in Rust

Please log in to watch this conference skillscast.

The talk discusses the results of experiments improving the efficiency of constant-time cryptographic algorithms implemented in Rust, with applications to faster Elliptic Curve Cryptography of practical interest.
