Difficult:
I think I understand the reasons of why we need to modify the elliptic curves mod 2. I'm not really sure what we are doing when we modify them and what makes the modified curve more secure than the original cure mod 2. I think I would like to see a geometric representation of what is happening and why that is better.
Reflective:
I think it is interesting that the NIST recommended elliptic curves for cryptographic use. It always makes me wonder what they have in mind as the give suggestions. I know in some cases such as DES they made it more secure. But with elliptic curves I wonder if they knew that people would need to modify the elliptic curves in order to make them secure for use.
