Abstract
The method of cipher block chaining using elliptic curve cryptography allows for the encryption of messages through elliptic curve cryptography and, particularly, with the performance of cipher block chaining utilizing both the elliptic curve and its twist, regardless of whether the elliptic curve and its twist are isomorphic with respect to one another. The method of performing elliptic curve cryptography is based on the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem. It is well known that an elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem is a computationally 'difficult' or 'hard' problem.
