 * [http://eprint.iacr.org/2009/389 On the Security of 1024-bit RSA and 160-bit Elliptic Curve Cryptography] crypto gurus try to predict whether 160-bit elliptic curve crypto can be brute-force-cracked in the next decade.  They conclude: "Right now most certainly not: 2.5 billion PS3s or equivalent devices (such as desktops) for a year is way out of reach. In a decade, very optimistically incorporating 10-fold cryptanalytic advances, still millions of devices would be required, and a successful open community attack on 160-bit ECC even by the year 2020 must be considered very unlikely."

 * [http://www.cs.umd.edu/~jkatz/papers/dh-sigs-full.pdf Efficient Signature Schemes with Tight Reductions to the Diffie-Hellman Problems] Scheme 1 in this paper comes with a tight reduction to the Computational Diffie-Hellman problem, which means it is definitely at least as secure as any discrete-log-based scheme and could be more secure. It also has a good pedigree (having been suggested by David Chaum et al. in 1989 and having been proven to tightly reduce to Computational Diffie-Hellman by Katz et al. in 2003). It also has a nice short public key, which could be good for fitting it into our capability security schemes.
