Reconfigurable Hardware (FPGA) Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) – A chip containing programmable logic blocks – Logic blocks are connected by a configurable interconnect – Limited number of dedicated „hard-cores“ like block memory or embedded multipliers (DSPs) are available Hardware is inherently parallel – Time vs. area 14. Aug. 20139
10
The Challenge Ring-LWE encryption and also other schemes (e.g., signature schemes) basically just require polynomial arithmetic – So far results are only available for polynomial multiplication – Temporary values have to be stored – Operations for addition and subtraction are necessary – An easy interface is required Solution: Build a lattice processor/micro-code engine 14.

Results Implemented encryption scheme on Spartan-6 and Virtex-6 for medium security (n=256,q=7681) and high security (n=512, q=12289) Core supports encryption, decryption and key generation Gaussian sampler is bounded with relatively low precision 14. Aug. 201315

Comparison with Previous Work Compared to previous implementation by Göttert et al. from CHES 2012 – Three times slower – Up to 60 times lower area While speed is important the design has to fit onto a reasonably sized FPGAs – Hardware allows parallel placement to make up for lower speed Higher flexibility with one general purpose core (Gen/Enc/Dec) 14.
