Compact Implementations of ARX-Based Block Ciphers on IoT Processors

In this article, we present implementations for Addition, Rotation, and eXclusive-or (ARX)-based block ciphers, including LEA and HIGHT, on IoT devices, including 8-bit AVR, 16-bit MSP, 32-bit ARM, and 32-bit ARM-NEON processors. We optimized 32-/8-bitwise ARX operations for LEA and HIGHT block ciphers by considering variations in word size, the number of general purpose registers, and the instruction set of the target IoT devices. Finally, we achieved the most compact implementations of LEA and HIGHT block ciphers. The implementations were fairly evaluated through the Fair Evaluation of Lightweight Cryptographic Systems framework, and implementations won the competitions in the first and the second rounds.
