It is an object of the present invention to provide a method and an apparatus for generating a safe normal form elliptic curve transformable to a Montgomery type elliptic curve as well as to provide an elliptic curve cryptosystem and a storage medium therefor.To achieve the above object, conditions concerning a curve order are extracted from criteria for transformability of a normal form elliptic curve to a Montgomery type elliptic curve and are given in a curve parameter generator incorporating a transformability judgement unit. Furthermore, to generate a curve having a cofactor of 4, the condition whether a curve order is divisible by 8 is given.
