Abstract :
The ECHO hash function was developed for the NIST cryptographic SHA-3 hash function competition. To evaluate ECHO´s performance, high-speed and low-cost ASIC architectures have been designed. The results show that the high-performance architecture can achieve a fastest throughput among AES-based hash function design reported to date among the SHA-3 candidates.
