WG-8: A Lightweight Stream Cipher for Resource-Constrained Smart Devices

WG-8: A Lightweight Stream Cipher for Resource-Constrained Smart Devices

Lightweight cryptographic primitives are essential for securing pervasive embedded devices like RFID tags, smart cards, and wireless sensor nodes. In this paper, we present a lightweight stream cipher WG-8, which is tailored from the well-known Welch-Gong (WG) stream cipher family, for resource-cons...
