ECC is an approach to public-key cryptography based on the algebraic structure of elliptic curves over finite fields. ECC allows smaller keys compared to non-EC cryptography (based on plain Galois fields) to provide equivalent security. Elliptic curves are applicable for key agreement, digital signatures, pseudorandom generators, and other tasks. they can be used for encryption by combining the key agreement with an asymmetric encryption scheme.

Why Elliptic Curve Cryptography protocols depend on fixed curves?
I'm learning about Ed25519. It depends on a bunch of magic values: The finite field of order $2^{255}-19$, the specific elliptic curve over that field, a specific point on that curve. This is in contr …
