This project measures the efficiency of different crypto algorithms installed in different microcontrollers. We identify the "best of breed" crypto for ultra-low SWaP devices in an energy harvesting context.
- Quantify the performance vs. energy trade space
- Identify device features that impact this trade space the most
- Assess the security impact when the attacker has access to intermediate results
