Abstract
This paper presents a multithread and efficient cryptographic hardware access (MECHA) for efficient and fast cryptographic operations that eliminates the need for context switching. Utilizing a UNIX domain socket, MECHA manages multiple requests from multiple applications simultaneously, resulting in faster processing and improved efficiency. We comprise several key components, including the Server thread, Client thread, Transceiver thread, and a pair of Sender and Receiver queues. MECHA design is portable and can be used with any communication protocol, with experimental results demonstrating a 83% increase in the speed of concurrent cryptographic requests compared to conventional interface design. MECHA architecture has significant potential in the field of secure communication applications ranging from cloud computing to the IoT, offering a faster and more efficient solution for managing multiple cryptographic operation requests concurrently.
