A Survey of Lightweight-Cryptography Implementations | Author: T. Eisenbarth, S. Kumar, L. Uhsadel, C. Paar, A. Poschmann | Description: The tight cost and implementation constraints of high-volume products, including secure RFID tags and smart cards, require specialized cryptographic implementations. The authors review recent developments in this area for symmetric and asymmetric ciphers, targeting embedded hardware and software. In this article, we present a selection of recently published lightweight-cryptography implementations and compare them to state-of-the-art results in their field. | | @INCOLLECTION{ieee2007 author = {T.

Poschmann | Description: In this thesis, we investigate a new lightweight cipher based on DESX. We investigate the design criteria of DES presented in [Cop94] and derive stronger design criteria. We show that S-boxes, which satisfy our new design criteria are more resistant against both differential and linear cryptanalysis. Our new cipher DLX is similar to DES or DESX, respectively, except for the f-function. DES uses eight different S-boxes, whereas our cipher only repeatedly uses one improved S-box (eight times). The implementation results show that our new cipher DLX requires less chip size, less energy, and is more secure against both differential and linear cryptanalysis. We also show that DLX requires 40% less chip size, 85% less clock cycles, and consumes only about 10% of the energy than the best AES implementation with regard to RFIDs needs [FDW04]. In this thesis we also investigate side channel attacks on AES. We present a size- optimised VHDL design of the AES and its results for a standard cell implementation. We show, that this ASIC can easily be broken with a simple power analysis (SPA). | | @INCOLLECTION{2005_DA_DESL_Poschmann_2005 author = {A.

Leander, C. Paar, A. Poschmann, K. Schramm | Description: The authors propose a new block cipher, DESL (DES lightweight extension), which is strong, compact and efficient. Due to its low area constraints DESL is especially suited for RFID (radiofrequency identification) devices. DESL is based on the classical DES (data encryption standard) design, however, unlike DES it uses a single S-box repeated eight times. This approach makes it possible to considerably decrease chip size requirements. The S-box has been highly optimized in such a way that DESL resists common attacks, i.e., linear and differential cryptanalysis, and the Davies-Murphy-attack. Therefore DESL achieves a security level which is appropriate for many applications. Furthermore, we propose a light-weight implementation of DESL which requires 45% less chip size and 86% less clock cycles than the best AES implementations with regard to RFID applications. Compared to the smallest DES implementation published, our DESL design requires 38% less transistors. Our 0.18mum DESL implementation requires a chip size of 7392 transistors (1848 gate equivalences) and is capable to encrypt a 64-bit plaintext in 144 clock cycles. When clocked at 100 kHz, it draws an average current of only 0.89muA. These hardware figures are in the range of the best eSTREAM streamcipher candidates, comprising DESL as a new alternative for ultra low-cost encryption. | | @INCOLLECTION{desl-iscas_2007 author = {G.

Uhsadel, A. Poschmann, and C. Paar | Description: In this article we present the fastest known implementation of a modular multiplication for a 160-bit standard compliant elliptic curve (secp160r1) for 8-bit micro-controller which are typically used in ubiquitous sensor networks (USN). The major part (77%) of the processing time for an elliptic curve operation such as ECDSA or EC Diffie-Hellman is spent on modular multiplication. We present an optimized arithmetic algorithm which significantly speeds up ECC schemes. The reduced processing time also yields a significantly lower energy consumption of ECC schemes. We show that a 160-bit modular multiplication can be performed in 0.37 ms on an 8-bit AVR processor clocked at 8 MHz. This brings the vision of asymmetric cryptography in the field of USNs with all its benefits for key-distribution and authentication a step closer to reality. | | @INCOLLECTION{ecc-speed2007 author = {L.
