Abstract :
This paper describes a novel engine, called PE-ICE (parallelized encryption and integrity checking engine), enabling to guarantee confidentiality and integrity of data exchanged between a SoC (system on chip) and its external memory. The PE-ICE approach is based on an existing block-encryption algorithm to which the integrity checking capability is added. Simulation results show that the performance overhead of PE-ICE remains low (below 4%) compared to block-encryption-only systems (which provide data confidentiality only)
