We introduce the use of asynchronous logic automata (ALA) for cryptography. ALA aligns the descriptions of hardware and software for portability, programmability, and scalability. An implementation of the A5/1 stream cipher is provided as a design example in a concise hardware description language, Snap, and we discuss a power- and timing-balanced cell design.
