This paper describes a design of crypto-processor that supports multiple block cipher algorithms of PRESENT, ARIA, and AES. The crypto-processor integrates three cores that are PRmo (PRESENT with mode of operation), AR_AS (ARIA_AES), and AES-16b. The PRmo core implementing 64-bit block cipher PRESENT supports key length 80-bit and 128-bit, and four modes of operation including ECB, CBC, OFB, and CTR. The AR_AS core supporting key length 128-bit and 256-bit integrates two 128-bit block ciphers ARIA and AES into a single data-path by utilizing resource sharing technique. The AES-16b core supporting key length 128-bit implements AES with a reduced data-path of 16-bit for minimizing hardware. Each crypto-core contains its own on-the-fly key scheduler, and consecutive blocks of plaintext/ciphertext can be processed without reloading key. The crypto-processor was verified by FPGA implementation. The crypto-processor implemented with a $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS cell library occupies 54,500 gate equivalents (GEs), and it can operate with 55 MHz clock frequency.

This paper describes an efficient implementation of KS(Korea Standards) block cipher algorithm ARIA. The ARIA crypto-processor supports three master key lengths of 128/192/256-bit and four modes of operation including ECB, CBC, OFB and CTR. A hardware sharing technique, which shares round function in encryption/decryption with key initialization, is employed to reduce hardware complexity. It reduces about 20% of gate counts when compared with straightforward implementation. The ARIA crypto-processor is verified by FPGA implementation, and synthesized with a $0.13-{\mu}m$ CMOS cell library. It has 46,100 gates on an area of $684-{\mu}m{\times}684-{\mu}m$ and the estimated throughput is about 1.28 Gbps at 200 MHz@1.2V.

ARIA and the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) are next generation standard block cipher algorithms of Korea and the US, respectively. This letter presents an area-efficient unified hardware architecture of ARIA and AES. Both algorithms have 128-bit substitution permutation network (SPN) structures, and their substitution and permutation layers could be efficiently merged. Therefore, we propose a 128-bit processor architecture with resource sharing, which is capable of processing ARIA and AES. This is the first architecture which supports both algorithms. Furthermore, it requires only 19,056 logic gates and encrypts data at 720 Mbps and 1,047 Mbps for ARIA and AES, respectively.

Ubiquitous Computing 환경은 모든 사물과 공간이 지능화되어 사용자가 컴퓨터나 네트워크를 의식하지 않는 상태에서 장소에 구애받지 않고 자유롭게 네트워크에 접속할 수 있는 환경을 의미한다. 만일 이러한 환경 속에서 개인정보들이 노출되었을 경우는 법적, 사회적, 경제적으로 커다란 손실을 초래하게 된다. 이것을 방지하기 위해서는 안정성과 효율성이 높은 암호 알고리즘이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 한국 표준으로 제정된 ISPN(Involutional SPN) 구조의 블록 암호화 ARIA 알고리즘을 사용하여 고속의 통신망과 Smart Card, PDA, 이동전화 및 다양한 기기 둥의 사용이 보편화될 Ubiquitous Computing 환경에 응용 가능한 ARIA 암호화 프로세서(이하 ARIA 프로세서)를 설계하였다.

Recently, the importance for internet of things (IoT) security has increased enormously and hardware-based compact chips are needed in IoT communication industries. In this paper, we propose low-complexity crypto-processor that unifies advanced encryption standard (AES), academy, research, institute, agency (ARIA), and CLEFIA protocols into one combined design. In the proposed crypto-processor, encryption and decryption processes are shared, and 128-bit round key generation process is combined. Moreover, the shared design has been minimized to be adapted in generic IoT devices and systems including lightweight IoT devices. The proposed crypto-processor was implemented in Verilog hardware description language (HDL) and synthesized to gate level circuit in 65nm CMOS process, which results in 11,080 gate counts. This demonstrates roughly 42% better than the aggregates of three algorithm implementations in the aspect of gate counts.

This paper describes an implementation of a security SoC (System-on-Chip) prototype that interfaces a microprocessor with a block cipher crypto-core. The Cortex-M0 was used as a microprocessor, and a crypto-core implemented by integrating ARIA and AES into a single hardware was used as an intellectual property (IP). The integrated ARIA-AES crypto-core supports five modes of operation including ECB, CBC, CFB, CTR and OFB, and two master key sizes of 128-bit and 256-bit. The integrated ARIA-AES crypto-core was interfaced to work with the AHB-light bus protocol of Cortex-M0, and the crypto-core IP was expected to operate at clock frequencies up to 50 MHz. The security SoC prototype was verified by BFM simulation, and then hardware-software co-verification was carried out with FPGA implementation.

In this paper, we propose the 16-bits optimization design of the ARIA block-cipher algorithm for embedded systems with 16-bits processors. The proposed design adopts 16-bits XOR operations and rotated shift operations as many as possible. Also, the proposed design extends 8-bits array variables into 16-bits array variables for faster chained matrix multiplication. In evaluation experiments, our design is compared to the previous 32-bits optimized design and 8-bits optimized design. Our 16-bits optimized design yields about 20% faster execution speed and about 28% smaller footprint than 32-bits optimized code. Also, our design yields about 91% faster execution speed with larger footprint than 8-bits optimized code.

As the communication industry develops, the development of SoC (System on Chip) is increasing. Accordingly, the paradigm of technology design of industries and companies is changing. In the existing process, companies purchased micro-architecture, but now they purchase ISA (Instruction Set Architecture), and companies design the architecture themselves. RISC-V is an open instruction set based on a reduced instruction set computer. RISC-V is equipped with ISA, which can be expanded through modularization, and an expanded version of ISA is currently being developed through the support of global companies. In this paper, we present benchmarking frameworks ARIA, LEA, and PIPO of Korean block ciphers in RISC-V. We propose implementation methods and discuss performance by utilizing the basic instruction set and features of RISC-V.
