Abstract: Ensuring the security of resource constrained devices is currently one of the major challenges in cryptography which is commonly addressed by employing lightweight cryptography.In this article, we present the DLP-PHOTON lightweight hash-function suitable for constrained devices such as passive RFID tags.We used a double length sponge construction as domain extension algorithm instead of employing a sponge construction in order to obtain a higher level of security.Double length sponge offers interesting trade-offs between speed, security and hardware.We implement DLP-PHOTON with Spartan 3, Virtex 403 and Artix-7 FPGA boards in an optimized hardware architecture.Our finding shows that the execution speed of DLP-PHOTON light weight hash function is high on a Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA).
