Optimized Hardware Realization of AES for High-Throughput FPGA Platforms
Abstract: The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is the predominant symmetric-key cryptographic algorithm used for securing digital communication across embedded systems, IoT devices, cloud infrastructures, and defense networks. Although software-based AES implementations offer flexibility, they often fail to meet the high-speed, low-latency, and energy-efficient requirements of modern real-time applications. Reconfigurable hardware platforms such as Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) provide a powerful alternative by enabling architectural customization, intrinsic parallelism, and optimized hardware acceleration. …
