Can I break elliptic curve cryptosystems (ECC) with COPACOBANA?
In principle, the architecture of COPACOBANA is well suited for elliptic curve attacks such as the parallel Pollard rho method. However, COPACOBANA can only attack systems with up to roughly 112 bit (unless a part of the key is known). Most ECC implementation in practice use much longer keys, often between 160-256 bits.
