            Abstract : 
This paper is intended to set up a strategy for design of elliptic curve (EC) operations in order to design an EC crypto-processor to be used in cryptographic applications using new modern technologies (e.g. FPGA) that provide integrated chip emulation. Also, we present the strategy for evaluating and certification of the developed product.
