Zang, Shiping, Zhao, Dongyan, Hu, Yi, Hu, Xiaobo, Gao, Ying, Du, Pengcheng, Cheng, Song.  2021.  A High Speed SM3 Algorithm Implementation for Security Chip. 2021 IEEE 5th Advanced Information Technology, Electronic and Automation Control Conference (IAEAC). 5:915–919.
High throughput of crypto circuit is critical for many high performance security applications. The proposed SM3 circuit design breaks the inherent limitation of the conventional algorithm flow by removing the "blocking point" on the critical path, and reorganizes the algebraic structure by adding four parallel compensation operations. In addition, the round expansion architecture, CSA (Carry Save Adder) and pre-calculation are also used in this design. Due to the optimization at both the algorithm level and the circuit level, the synthesized circuit of this design can reach maximum 415MHz operating clock frequency and 6.4Gbps throughput with SMIC 40nm high performance technology. Compared with the conventional implementation method, the throughput performance of the proposed SM3 circuit increases by 97.5% and the chip area of SM3 algorithm area is only increased by 16.2%.

Ibarra, Jaime, Javed Butt, Usman, Do, Anh, Jahankhani, Hamid, Jamal, Arshad.  2019.  Ransomware Impact to SCADA Systems and its Scope to Critical Infrastructure. 2019 IEEE 12th International Conference on Global Security, Safety and Sustainability (ICGS3). :1–12.
SCADA systems are being constantly migrated to modern information and communication technologies (ICT) -based systems named cyber-physical systems. Unfortunately, this allows attackers to execute exploitation techniques into these architectures. In addition, ransomware insertion is nowadays the most popular attacking vector because it denies the availability of critical files and systems until attackers receive the demanded ransom. In this paper, it is analysed the risk impact of ransomware insertion into SCADA systems and it is suggested countermeasures addressed to the protection of SCADA systems and its components to reduce the impact of ransomware insertion.
