Creating a high-speed elliptic curve cryptographic (ECC) processor capable of performing fast point Multiplication with low hardware utilisation is a critical requirement in cryptography and network security. This paper describes the implementation of a high-speed, field-programmable gate array (FPGA) in this paper. A high-security digital signature technique is implemented using Edwards25519, a recently approved twisted Edwards’s curve. For point addition and point doubling operations on the twisted Edwards curve, advanced hardware configurations are developed in which each task involves only 516 and 1029 clock cycles, respectively. As an observation the ECC processor presented in this paper begins with the process which takes 1.48 ms of single-point multiplication to be performed. The comparison of key size and its ratio which shows the impact on processing of each processor is shown for ECC processor and RSA processor. The delay and number of slices used for the ECC processor is shown and this is a developed solution saves time by providing rapid scalar multiplication with low hardware consumption without compromising on security.
