ABSTRACT:: 
We construct a bump-in-the-wire (BITW) solution that retrofits
security into time-critical communications over bandwidth-limited
serial links between devices in Supervisory Control And Data
Acquisition (SCADA) systems. Previous BITW solutions fail to provide
the necessary security within timing constraints; the previous
solution that does provide the necessary security is not BITW.  At a
comparable hardware cost, our BITW solution provides sufficient
security, and yet incurs minimal end-to-end communication latency. A
microcontroller prototype of our solution is under development.
