Implementation of the WLAN security standard (802.11i) requires the NIST standard AES cipher in CTR and CBC modes (a.k.a. CCM) for encryption and message authentication with the CCMP protocol and RC4/"Michael" cipher for the TKIP. The WPA3 core is tuned for high data rate 802.11i applications (up to 2 Gbps for the CCMP protocol for 802.11n/802.11ac). The core contains the base AES core AES1, base RC4 core ARC4 and is available for immediate licensing.

The design is fully synchronous and available in both source and netlist form..
