Abstract

In resource-intensive Internet of Things applications, Lightweight Stream Ciphers (LWSCs) play a vital role in influencing both the security and performance of the system. Numerous LWSCs have been proposed, each offering certain properties and trade-offs that carefully balance security and performance requirements. This paper presents a comprehensive evaluation of prominent LWSCs, with a focus on their performance and resource consumption, providing insights into efficiency, efficacy, and suitability in the real-world application of resource-intensive live video feed encryption on an ARM processor. The study involves the development of a benchmarking tool designed to evaluate key metrics, including encryption frame rate, throughput, processing cycles, memory footprint, ROM utilization, and energy consumption. In addition, we apply the E−Rank metric, which combines key performance and resource metrics to derive a unified comparative measure for overall software performance.

ARM 处理器上用于实时视频馈送加密的轻量级流密码性能评估

在资源密集型物联网应用中，轻量级流密码（LWSC）在影响系统的安全性和性能方面发挥着至关重要的作用。目前已提出了许多 LWSC，每种 LWSC 都具有一定的特性，并能在安全性和性能要求之间进行权衡。本文全面评估了著名的 LWSC，重点关注其性能和资源消耗，深入探讨了 ARM 处理器上资源密集型实时视频馈送加密实际应用的效率、功效和适用性。这项研究包括开发一个基准测试工具，用于评估关键指标，包括加密帧率、吞吐量、处理周期、内存占用、ROM 利用率和能耗。此外，我们还应用了 E-Rank 指标，该指标将关键性能指标和资源指标结合在一起，为软件的整体性能提供了一个统一的比较衡量标准。
