Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) is growing at a rapid pace and it is essential that the communication between these resource constrained IoT devices is secure and efficient. Traditional authentication schemes like RSA and ECDSA do not conform to the high throughput and time critical needs of these devices. In this research, we propose a hardware accelerated lattice based authentication scheme tailored specifically towards constrained IoT devices. We show that our scheme provides lower latency and higher throughput compared to traditional authentication schemes and its CPU only counter-parts.
