Improvements and New Features + + +

+ Add support for ISO oids 1.3.14.3.2.29 and 1.3.14.3.2.27 + that are somtimes used instead of the PKCS defined oids + 1.2.840.113549.1.1.5 and 1.2.840.10040.4.3. Add function + pkix_sign_types:/1 that translates oids to to algorithm + atoms ex:

+

+ > public_key:pkix_sign_types({1,3,14,3,2,29}). {sha,rsa}

+ Integrate elliptic curve contribution from Andreas + Schultz

+

+ In order to be able to support elliptic curve cipher + suites in SSL/TLS, additions to handle elliptic curve + infrastructure has been added to public_key and crypto.

+

+ This also has resulted in a rewrite of the crypto API to + gain consistency and remove unnecessary overhead. All OTP + applications using crypto has been updated to use the new + API.

+

+ Impact: Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) offers + equivalent security with smaller key sizes than other + public key algorithms. Smaller key sizes result in + savings for power, memory, bandwidth, and computational + cost that make ECC especially attractive for constrained + environments.
