Hi everyone, I’m currently working on a project where I need to use the cryptography library to encrypt/decrypt a message using an elliptic curve key pair.
The ‘Asymmetric algorithms’ -> ‘RSA’ section of the official documentation includes sections on RSA encryption/decryption using the OAEP scheme. In contrast, the ‘Asymmetric algorithms’ -> ‘Elliptic curve cryptography’ section has no similar operations such as ECIES encryption and decryption. I’ve written an implementation of the ECIES scheme for elliptic curve key pairs which builds on the other primitives available through the cryptography library. My boss is happy for me to spend some time creating a pull request to share the implementation with the community. Do people feel there would be sufficient interest for this to be worthwhile? Is there a roadmap for elliptic curve functionality that I should be aware of? It would be great to know how the project intends to extend the elliptic curve interfaces in the future. Thank you very much for your help. Cheers, Adam
