Hardware performance of eStream phase-III stream cipher candidates
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents hardware implementation and performance metrics for the candidate stream ciphers remaining in the phase-III hardware profile. The results are presented in tabular and graphical format together with summarising the utility of the candidates against two notional applications: one for 10Mbps wireless network and a second for 100kHz RFID. An attempt has been made to quantify the flexibility and scalability dimensions of performance.

Testing Framework for eSTREAM Profile II Candidates
The aim of eSTREAM Profile II is to identify a small number of stream ciphers that are suitable for low resource circuitry based implementation. Besides algorithmic properties and security evaluation to theoretical attacks, performance evaluation is another important task of eSTREAM that is being considered. In this contribution we summarize and explain our testing framework for eSTREAM Profile...
متن کاملUnderstanding the ZK-Crypts ─ Ciphers for (Almost) all Reasons
The ZK-Crypt combination compact hardware stream cipher engines each include a true random number generator, a stream cipher and a data authenticator based on a fast compact engine and proven "noise sources". The ZK-Crypt II 7.0 K gate and ZK-Crypt 8.2 K gate "engines" output a 32 bit word at each clock cycle with 128 and 160-bit keys, maximizing throughput with very low energy per enciphered b...
متن کاملFPGA Implementations of eSTREAM Phase-2 Focus Candidates with Hardware Profile
Efficient cryptographic implementations are a fundamental factor in the achievement and dissemination of new computerized applications. In some recent environments with (very) limited resources such as smart cards, sensor networks or RFID tags, standard algorithms may not be completely adapted.Consequently, the design of new solutions for low-cost cryptography is sometimes necessary and is at l...
متن کاملA Key Recovery Attack on Edon80
Edon80 is a recent stream cipher design that has advanced to the third and last phase of the eSTREAM project. It has remained unbroken and untweaked since it was designed and submitted to eSTREAM. It is now one of the 8 nal hardware candidates. In this paper we cryptanalyze the cipher by describing a key recovery attack. The complexity of the attack is around 2 simple operations for a keystream...
متن کاملThree Snakes in One Hole: A 67 Gbps Flexible Hardware for SOSEMANUK with Optional Serpent and SNOW 2.0 Modes
With increasing usage of hardware accelerators in modern heterogeneous Systemon-Chips (SoCs), the distinction between hardware and software is no longer rigid. The domain of cryptography is no exception and efficient hardware design of so-called software ciphers are becoming increasingly popular. In this paper, for the first time we propose an efficient hardware accelerator design for SOSEMANUK...
