Kyber512 in Hardware
A pure-hardware Kyber512 CCA-secure key encapsulation mechanism for FPGAs, with a masked variant and AXI IP packages.
- Verilog, VHDL
A pure-hardware implementation of the Kyber512 key encapsulation mechanism (KEM) with CCA security, for FPGAs, and a variant masked against power-based side-channel attacks. Kyber was selected by NIST for standardization as a post-quantum KEM.
