This paper describes a design of cryptographic processor that implements the AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) block cipher algorithm“Rijndael”. To achieve high throughput rate, a sub-pipeline stage is inserted into the round transformation block, resulting that the second half of current round function and the first half of next round function are being simultaneously operated. For area-efficient and low-power implementation the round transformation block is designed to share the hardware resources in encryption and decryption. An efficient scheme for on-the-fly key scheduling, which supports the three master-key lengths of 128-b/192-b/256-b, is devised to generate round keys in the first sub-pipeline stage of each round processing. The cryptoprocessor designed in Verilog-HDL was verified using Xilinx FPGA board and test system. The core synthesized using 0.35-${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS cell library consists of about 25,000 gates. Simulation results show that it has a throughput of about 520-Mbits/sec with 220-MHz clock frequency at 2.5-V supply.

Propose stream cipher Canon that need in Wireless sensor network construction that can secure confidentiality and integrity. Create Canon 128 bits streams key by 128 bits secret key and 128 bits IV, and makes 128 bits cipher text through whitening processing with produced streams key and 128 bits plaintext together. Canon for easy hardware implementation and software running fast algorithm consists only of simple logic operations. In particular, because it does not use S-boxes for non-linear operations, hardware implementation is very easy. Proposed stream cipher Canon shows fast speed test results performed better than AES, Salsa20, and gate number is small than Trivium. Canon purpose of the physical environment is very limited applications, mobile phones, wireless Internet environment, DRM (Digital Right Management), wireless sensor networks, RFID, and use software and hardware implementation easy 128 bits stream ciphers.

This paper introduces a case study of designing a cryptographic processor dedicated to VPN/SSL system. The designed processor supports not only block cipher algorithm, including 3DES, AES, and SEED, but also 163 bit ECC public key crypto algorithm. Moreover, we adopted PCI Master interface in the design, which guarantees fast computation of cryptographic algorithm prevalent in general information security systems.

Feistel and SPN are the two main structures in a block cipher. Feistel is a symmetric structure which has the same structure in encryption and decryption, but SPN is not a symmetric structure. In this paper, we propose a SPN which has a symmetric structure in encryption and decryption. The whole operations of proposed algorithm are composed of the even numbers of N rounds where the first half of them, 1 to N/2 round, applies a right function and the last half of them, (N+1)/2 to N round, employs an inverse function. And a symmetry layer is located in between the right function layer and the inverse function layer. In this paper, AES encryption and decryption function are selected for the right function and the inverse function, respectively. The symmetric layer is composed with simple matrix and round key addition. Due to the simplicity of the symmetric SPN structure in hardware implementation, the proposed modified AES is believed to construct a safe and efficient cipher in Smart Card and RFID environments where electronic chips are built in.

Feistel and SPN are the two main structures in a block cipher. Feistel is a symmetric structure which has the same structure in encryption and decryption, but SPN is not a symmetric structure. Encrypt round function and decrypt round function in SPN structure have three parts, round key addition and substitution layer with S-box for confusion and permutation layer for defusion. Most SPN structure for example ARIA and AES uses 8 bit S-Box at substitution layer, which is vulnerable to Square attack, Boomerang attack, Impossible differentials cryptanalysis etc. In this paper, we propose a SPN which has a symmetric structure in encryption and decryption. The whole operations of proposed algorithm are composed of the even numbers of N rounds where the first half of them, 1 to N/2 round, applies a right function and the last half of them, (N+1)/2 to N round, employs an inverse function. And a symmetry layer is located in between the right function layer and the inverse function layer. The symmetric layer is composed with a multiple simple bit slice involution S-Boxes. The bit slice involution S-Box symmetric layer increases difficult to attack cipher by Square attack, Boomerang attack, Impossible differentials cryptanalysis etc. The proposed symmetric SPN block cipher with bit slice involution S-Box is believed to construct a safe and efficient cipher in Smart Card and RFID environments where electronic chips are built in.

Recently, wireless Internet environment with mobile phones and wireless sensor networks with severe resource restrictions have been actively studied. Moreover, an overall security issues are essential to build a reliable and secure sensor network. One of secure solution is to develop a fast cryptographic algorithm for data encryption. Therefore, we propose a 128-bit stream cipher, AA128 which has efficient implementation of software and hardware and is suitable for real-time applications such as wireless Internet environment with mobile phones, wireless sensor networks and Digital Right Management (DRM). AA128 is stream cipher which consists of 278-bit ASR and non-linear transformation. Non-linear transformation consists of Confusion Function, Nonlinear transformation(SF0 ~ SF3) and Whitening. We show that the proposed stream cipher AA128 is faster than AES and Salsa20, and it satisfies the appropriate security requirements. Our hardware simulation result indicates that the proposed cipher algorithm can satisfy the speed requirements of real-time processing applications.

This paper describes a design of cryptographic processor that implements the Rijndael cipher algorithm, the Advanced Encryption Standard algorithm. It can execute both encryption and decryption, and supports only 128-bit block and 128-bit keys. As the processor is implemented only one round, it must iterate 11 times to perform an encryption/decryption. We implemented the ByteSub and InvByteSub transformation using the algorithm for minimizing the increase of area which is caused by different encryption and decryption. It could reduce the memory size by half than implementing, with only ROM. We estimate that the cryptographic processor consists of about 15,000 gates, 32K-bit ROM and 1408-bit RAM, and has a throughput of 1.28 Gbps at 110 MHz clock based on Samsung 0.5um CMOS standard cell library. To our knowledge, this offers more reduced memory size compared to previously reported implementations with the same performance.

An integrated cryptographic processor that efficiently integrates ARIA, AES block ciphers and Whirlpool hash function into a single hardware architecture is described. Based on the algorithm characteristics of ARIA, AES, and Whirlpool, we optimized the design so that the hardware resources of the substitution layer and the diffusion layer were shared. The round block was designed to operate in a time-division manner for the round transformation and the round key expansion of the Whirlpool hash, resulting in a lightweight hardware implementation. The hardware operation of the integrated ARIA-AES-Whirlpool crypto-processor was verified by Virtex5 FPGA implementation, and it occupied 68,531 gate equivalents (GEs) with a 0.18um CMOS cell library. When operating at 80 MHz clock frequency, it was estimated that the throughputs of ARIA, AES block ciphers, and Whirlpool hash were 602~787 Mbps, 682~930 Mbps, and 512 Mbps, respectively.
