To provide security autonomy capability, such that different users can have independent variants of the encryption algorithm, MK-3 is designed to be customizable. Two levels of customization are supported, Factory Customization and Field Customization. Customization is done by modifying functions and function parameters in the algorithm to yield unique cipher functions while preserving the algorithm’s cryptographic security. The main goal of this work is to present the results from the statistical analysis of the customizable MK-3 encryption cypher, focusing on field customized mixers. We recall the main components of the MK-3 algorithm and overview a subset of available factory and field customizations for MK-3. We test the main instances of the field customized versions and give a general argument for their desired statistical properties expected from an encryption cypher.

“…It can be configured or reprogrammed by customers or designer engineers after manufacturing [10]. FPGA hardware design is increasingly popular in applications like graphic processing [11], digital signal filtering [12], cryptography [13], and also the electric motor drives [8], [9]. This is owing to its flexibility, very fast computation time with low latency, low power consumption and its continual improvement of the technology, which make it even better in the future.…”

<span lang="EN-US">Vehicle safety has becoming one of the important issues nowadays, due to the fact the number of road accidents, which cause injuries, deaths and also damages, keeps on increasing. One of the main factors which contribute to these accidents are human's lack of awareness and also carelessness. This paper presents the development and implementation of an algorithm to be utilized for vehicle anti-collision alert system, which may be useful to reduce the occurrence of accidents. This algorithm, which is to be deployed with the front sensors of the vehicle, is capable of alerting any occurrence of sudden slowing or static vehicles ahead, by sensing the rate of distance change. Furthermore, it also triggers an alert if the driver is breaching the safe distance from the vehicle ahead. This algorithm has been successfully implemented in Altera DE0 FPGA and its functionality was validated via hardware experimental tests.</span>
