Software and hardware co-design of lightweight authenticated ciphers ASCON for the internet of things by Jing WANG, Lesheng HE, Zhonghong LI, Luchi LI, Hang YANG

“…ASCON was the most promising algorithm to become an international standard in the 2021 NIST lightweight authenticated encryption call for proposals.The algorithm was designed to achieve the best performance in IoT resource-constrained environments, and there was no hardware IP core implementation based on this algorithm in the open literature.A software-hardware collaborative implementation method of ASCON was proposed, which improved the speed and reduced the memory footprint of ASCON in IoT security authentication applications through hardware means such as S-box optimization, prior calculation and advanced pipeline design.As a comparison, ASCON has been transplanted on the common IoT embedded processor platform.The results showed that the described method was more than 7.9 times faster, while the memory footprint was reduced by at least 90%.The schemes can be used for the design and implementation of IoT security application-specific integrated circuits or SoCs.…”
