Abstract
This paper presents a Software-Defined Network (SDN) cryptographic solution targetedon high-speed smart Network Interface Cards (NICs) with an FPGA chip. This solution providesa fast alternative method to develop network-oriented data processing cryptography applications foran accelerator. A high-level programming language – Programming Protocol-independent PacketProcessor (P4) – is used to avoid a complex and time-consuming hardware development. The solutionconsists of two main parts: a library of mainly used cryptographic primitives written in VHSICHardware Description Language (VHDL) i.e. a symmetric cipher (AES-GCM-256), a hash function(SHA-3), a SHA-3-based Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC), a digital signaturescheme (EdDSA) and a post-quantum digital signature scheme (Dilithium), and a compiler P4/VHDLwith the support for these cryptographic components as external objects of P416.
