Abstract

The paper presents the hardware architecture of a cryptosystem based on cellular automata model (CA). Main cryptographic schemes with CA are briefly introduced. The hardware version refers to linear class 3 CA. The project for the cellular automata, main block of the encryption and decryption schemes, is presented. The scheme may be used for robust, low-cost and efficient cryptosystems for specific applications.
