FPGA Implementation of Lightweight Security Mechanisms SIMON & SPECK -- 2

Objectives of this project are Benchmarking speed, ROM, and RAM usage of software implementations of Simon and Speck's ciphers using C++ and XILINX to improve the performance of SIMON and SPECK on ASICs, FPGAs, microcontrollers, and microprocessors.

- Memory benchmarking via C code
- Slice count benchmarking via FPGA
- Gate equivalent benchmarking via ASIC Implementation
