Abstract
- The rapid growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) highlights the importance of lightweight cryptography in maintaining security. However, enhancing performance while ensuring the same level of security remains a significant challenge. This paper presents two innovative architectures for the CRAFT lightweight block cipher, aiming to enhance performance without compromising security. The novel Serial and Unrolled architectures are introduced to achieve low area usage and high throughput, respectively. Specifically, the Serial architecture reduces the datapath from 64-bit to 4-bit, significantly decreasing the area. The Unrolled architecture, on the other hand, minimizes latency from 32 to 16. Additionally, Boolean satisfiability (SAT) solvers are employed to identify a lower-cost area implementation of the S-Box. The proposed designs underwent evaluation on three distinct FPGA platforms: Artix-7, Kintex-7, and Spartan-7. The results show that the low area design reduces area usage by 10.16% compared to the previous design. Additionally, the S-Box implementation achieves a significant area reduction of 28.9%. On the other hand, the unrolled design enhances the maximum throughput by 40.53% compared to the previous design. Therefore, the proposed designs could offer enhanced performance while maintaining security for IoT devices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
