A Compact and High-Performance Hardware Architecture for CRYSTALS-Dilithium

A Proposal for a High-Performance Active Hardware Architecture

Current research in Active Networking is focused on developing software architectures and defining funtionality of Execution Environments. While active network systems show superior functionality compared to traditional networks, they only operate at substantially lower link speeds. To increase the acceptance of Active Network in environments where link speeds of several Gb/s are common, we pro...

CRYSTALS - Dilithium: Digital Signatures from Module Lattices

This paper presents Dilithium, a lattice-based signature scheme that is part of the CRYSTALS (Cryptographic Suite for Algebraic Lattices) package that will be submitted to the NIST call for postquantum standards. The scheme is designed to be simple to securely implement against side-channel attacks and to have comparable efficiency to the currently best lattice-based signature schemes. Our impl...

A Hardware Architecture for Dynamic Performance and Energy Adaptation

A Compact Rijndael Hardware Architecture with S-Box Optimization

Compact and high-speed hardware architectures and logic optimization methods for the AES algorithm Rijndael are described. Encryption and decryption data paths are combined and all arithmetic components are reused. By introducing a new composite field, the S-Box structure is also optimized. An extremely small size of 5.4 Kgates is obtained for a 128-bit key Rijndael circuit using a 0.11-μm CMOS...
