  • In this work, a hardware based cryptographic module for the cyber security of nuclear power plant is developed using a system engineering approach. Nuclear power plants are isolated from the Internet, but as shown in the case of Iran, Man-in-the-middle attacks (MITM) could be a threat to the safety of the nuclear facilities. This FPGA-based module does not have an operating system and it provides protection as a firewall and mitigates the cyber threats. The encryption equipment consists of an encryption module, a decryption module, and interfaces for communication between modules and systems. The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)-128, which is formally approved as top level by U.S. National Security Agency for cryptographic algorithms, is adopted. The development of the cyber security module is implemented in two main phases: reverse engineering and re-engineering. In the reverse engineering phase, the cyber security plan and system requirements are analyzed, and the AES algorithm is decomposed into functional units. In the re-engineering phase, we model the logical architecture using Vitech CORE9 software and simulate it with the Enhanced Functional Flow Block Diagram (EFFBD), which confirms the performance improvements of the hardware-based cryptographic module as compared to software based cryptography. Following this, the Hardware description language (HDL) code is developed and tested to verify the integrity of the code. Then, the developed code is implemented on the FPGA and connected to the personal computer through Recommended Standard (RS)-232 communication to perform validation of the developed component. For the future work, the developed FPGA based encryption equipment will be verified and validated in its expected operating environment by connecting it to the Advanced power reactor (APR)-1400 simulator.

  • 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.

  • The computing power of graphics processing units(GPU) has already surpassed that of CPU and the gap between their powers is getting wider. Thus, research on GPGPU which applies GPU to general purpose becomes popular and shows great success especially in the field of parallel data processing. Since the implementation of cryptographic algorithm using GPU was started by Cook et at. in 2005, improved results using graphic libraries such as OpenGL and DirectX have been published. In this paper, we present skills and results of implementing block ciphers using CUDA library announced by NVIDIA in 2007. Also, we discuss a general method converting source codes of block ciphers on CPU to those on GPU. On NVIDIA 8800GTX GPU, the resulting speeds of block cipher AES, ARIA, and DES are 4.5Gbps, 7.0Gbps, and 2.8Gbps, respectively which are faster than the those on CPU.

  • Although encryption for data protection is essential in the big data platform environment of public institutions and corporations, much performance verification studies on encryption algorithms considering actual big data workloads have not been conducted. In this paper, we analyzed the performance change of AES, ARIA, and 3DES for each of six workloads of big data by adding data and nodes in MongoDB environment. This enables us to identify the optimal block-based cryptographic algorithm for each workload in the big data platform environment, and test the performance of MongoDB by testing various workloads in data and node configurations using the NoSQL Database Benchmark (YCSB). We propose an optimized architecture that takes into account.

  • Cellular automata (CA) have been applied to effective cryptographic system design. CA is superior in randomness to LFSR due to the fact that its state is updated simultaneously by local interaction. To apply these CAs to the cryptosystem, a study has been performed how to synthesize CA corresponding to given polynomials. In this paper, we analyze the recurrence relations of the characteristic polynomial of the 90 UCA and the characteristic polynomial of the 90/150 CA whose transition rule is <$00{\cdots}001$>. And we synthesize the 90/150 CA corresponding to the trinomials $x^{2^n}+x+1(n{\geq}2)$ satisfying f(x)=f(x+1) using the 90 UCA transition rule blocks and the special transition rule block. We also analyze the properties of the irreducible factors of trinomials $x^{2^n}+x+1$ and propose a 90/150 CA synthesis algorithm corresponding to $x^{2^n}+x^{2^m}+1(n{\geq}2,n-m{\geq}2)$.

  • This paper presented a low power design of a 32bit block cypher processor reduced from the original 128bit architecture. The primary purpose of this research is to evaluate physical implementation results rather than theoretical aspects. The data path and diffusion function of the processor were reduced to accommodate the smaller hardware size. As a running example demonstrating the design approach, we employed a modified ARIA algorithm having four S-boxes. The proposed 32bit ARIA processor comprises 13,893 gates which is 68.25% smaller than the original 128bit structure. The design was synthesized and verified based on the standard cell library of the MagnaChip's 0.35um CMOS Process. A transistor level power simulation shows that the power consumption of the proposed processor reduced to 61.4mW, which is 9.7% of the original 128bit design. The low power design of the block cypher Processor would be essential for improving security of battery-less wireless sensor networks or RFID.

  • 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 a round transformation block, resulting that two consecutive round functions are simultaneously operated. For area-efficient and low-power implementation, the round transformation block is designed to share the hardware resources for encryption and decryption. An efficient on-the-fly key scheduler is devised to supports the three master-key lengths of 128-b/192-b/256-b, and it generates round keys in the first sub-pipeline stage of each round processing. The Verilog-HDL model of the cryptoprocessor was verified using Xilinx FPGA board and test system. The core synthesized using 0.35-${\mu}m$ 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.

  • GIFT is a PRESENT-like cryptographic algorithm proposed in CHES 2017 and used S-box that can be implemented through a bit-slice technique[1]. Since bit-permutation is used as a linear layer, it can be efficiently implemented in hardware, but bit-slice implementation in software requires a specific conversion process, which is costly. In this paper, we propose a new bit-permutation that enables efficient bit-slice implementation and GIFT-64-variant using it. GIFT-64-variant has better safety than the existing GIFT in terms of differential and linear cryptanalysis.

  • In this paper, the block cipher algorithms, 3-DES(Triple Data Encryption Standard), AES(Advanced Encryption Standard), SEED, HASH(SHA-1), which are domestic and international standards, have been implemented as an integrated cryptographic engine for smart card applications. For small area and low power design which are essential requirements for portable devices, arithmetic resources are shared for iteration steps in each algorithm, and a two-level clock gating technique was used to reduce the dynamic power consumption. The integrated cryptographic engine was verified with ALTERA Excalbur EPXA10F1020C device, requiring 7,729 LEs(Logic Elements) and 512 Bytes ROM, and its maximum clock speed was 24.83 MHz. When designed by using Samsung 0.18 um STD130 standard cell library, the engine consisted of 44,452 gates and had up to 50 MHz operation clock speed. It was estimated to consume 2.96 mW, 3.03 mW, 2.63 mW, 7.06 mW power at 3-DES, AES, SEED, SHA-1 modes respectively when operating at 25 MHz clock. We found that it has better area-power optimized structure than other existing designs for smart cards and various embedded security systems.
