Abstract :
Reconfigurable computing has grown to become an important and large field of research. It offers advantages over traditional hardware and software implementation of computational algorithms. In this paper, we implemented multiple cryptographic algorithms, namely DES, LOKI, DESX, Biham-DES, and SnDES on a reconfigurable hardware. Our implementation results in a high flexibility and similar ciphering rate in compare with the previous implementations reported in FPGAs.
