Overview

VISENGI's SHA-2 Secure Hash Algorithm IP core has been developed to be the highest throughput SHA-2 cryptographic hasher while at the same time making it lightweight and easy to use.

Key features

  • NIST FIPS PUB180-4 Secure Hash Standard compliant SHA-2 implementation
  • Compatible HMAC for Hash Message Authentication as per FIPS PUB 198
  • Fully verified with NIST test vectors
  • Constant hashing input data throughput only dependent on clock frequency:
  • 8'0 bits/sec/Hz for: SHA-224 and SHA-256
  • 12'8 bits/sec/Hz for all others: SHA-384, SHA-512, SHA-512/224, SHA-512/256
  • Achieves >200 MHz on most FPGAs: >1600 Mbps SHA-224,256, and >2560 Mbps for all others
  • Light-weight resource usage with full capabilities:
  • SHA-224,256: under 2K Registers and LUT6s (no BRAM or DSPs needed)
  • SHA-384,512,512/*: under 3K5 Registers and LUT6s (no BRAM or DSPs needed)
  • Industry standard AXI4-Stream (AXI4-ST) I/O interfaces
  • Zero-configuration: Fully data-driven control (i.e. message boundaries from data stream)
  • I/O data width for full throughput: 32 bits for SHA-224/256, 64 bits for all others
  • Arbitrary bit length inputs supported (except 0 bits)
  • Unlimited message sizes (up to 2 to the 64 or 128 bits, as per standard)
  • No start latency and minimal hash end latency (<172 clock cycles per hash operation)
  • Further reduced sizes available: when padding is not necessary or input is word/byte aligned

The Challenge of Automotive Hardware Security Deployment

A complete reinvention of the automotive industry is currently underway. Autonomous driving, connected vehicles, and the electrification of the powertrain all represent a once-in-a-generation shift in the manufacturing process.

Embracing a More Secure Era with TLS 1.3

TLS 1.3 offers attractive speed and security improvement benefits that are hard to ignore. The handshake phase was sped up by removing one or more roundtrips (back and forth messaging between client and server) in TLS 1.3 – with “or more” meaning that for certain cases, roundtrips can be entirely eliminated (0-RTT).

Standardized PUF-based Solution for Device eID

In this column, after a background introduction, we will first discuss IEEE 802.1AR standard on secure device identity. Next, we’ll assert PUF is an enabling solution for the device eID. Third, we will discuss PUF related international standards. Fourth, we will present a short tutorial on PUFiot. Fifth, we will assert that PUFiot is an ideal Device eID with wide applications. Finally, we will draw a conclusion on the future trend of Device eID development.

Implementing Ultra Low Latency Data Center Services with Programmable Logic

Data centers require many low-level network services to implement high-level applications. Key-Value Store (KVS) is a critical service that associates values with keys and allows machines to share these associations over a network. Most existing KVS systems run in software and scale out by running parallel processes on multiple microprocessor cores to increase throughput.

Security in vehicular systems

With the advent of IoT and increasingly interconnected and autonomous nature of a vehicle’s control modules, there has been an exponential increase in V2V, V2X and inter vehicular communications. This in turn increases the attack surface for hackers which demands state-of-art security features in modern automotive microcontrollers, moreover safety and security go hand in hand.
