FPGA devices are becoming faster and cheaper, and their reconfigurability allows for a flexibility that ASIC devices cannot hope to match. These features make FPGA devices an ideal fit for cryptographic applications. However, FPGA devices are vulnerable to side-channel attacks that would compromise the security of the device. I implemented Triple-Module Redundancy and other techniques to increase reliability in the face of adversarial effects.
