In this paper, we describe VLSI design and performance evaluation of OCB-AES crytographic algorithm that simulataneously provides privacy and authenticity. The OCB-AES crytographic algorithm sovles the problems such as long operation time and large hardware of conventional crytographic system, because the conventional system must implement the privancy and authenticity sequentially with seqarated algorithms and hardware. The OCB-AES processor with area-efficient modular offset generator and tag generator is designed using IDEC Samsung 0.35um standard cell library and consists of about 55,700 gates. Its cipher rate is about 930Mbps and the number of clock cycles needed to generate the 128-bit tags for authenticity and integrity is (m+2)${\times}$(Nr+1), where m and Nr represent the number of block for message and number of rounds for AES encryption, respectively. The OCB-AES processor can be applicable to soft cryptographic IP of IEEE 802.11i wireless LAN and Mobile SoC.

In this paper, the 128bit AES block cipher algorithm OCB (Offset Code Book) mode for privacy and authenticity of high speed packet data was efficiently designed in C language level and was optimized to support the required capacity of contents server using high performance DSP. It is known that OCB mode is about two times faster than CBC-MAC mode. As an experimental result, the encryption / decryption speed of the implemented block cipher was 308Mbps, 311 Mbps respectively at 1GHz clock speed, which is 50% faster than a general design with 3.5% more memory usage.

This paper surveys the DDS, a real - time communication middleware, and proposes ways to improve the DDS secure communication performance. DDS is a communication middleware standard by the OMG. The OMG has released the DDS Security standard to resolve the security issues. The security performance of DDS can be considered into transmission speed and confidentiality. In terms of confidentiality, AES-GCM, currently the encryption algorithm specified by DDS Security, is a very strong encryption algorithm, but there are well known weaknesses associated with authentication. In terms of speed, The computational load for the security function is a restriction to use DDS in systems which requires real-time performance. Therefore, in order to improve the DDS security, algorithms that are faster than AES-GCM and strong in encryption strength are needed. In this paper, we propose a DDS message encryption method applying AES-OCB algorithm to meet these requirements and Compared with the existing DDS, the transmission performance is improved by up to 12%.
