摘要: RC4, the widely used stream cipher, is well known for its simplicity and ease of implementation in software. In case a special purpose hardware designed best till date 1 byte per 3 clock cycles. this paper, we take fresh look at RC4 propose novel architecture which generates keystream cycle. Our strategy considers generation two consecutive bytes by unwrapping The same customized to perform key scheduling algorithm rate round clock.
