Armon Chojnacki enhanced the intel-ipsec-mb repository by developing an SSE-based parallelization for AES-CFB decryption, enabling up to eight blocks to be processed concurrently and improving throughput for encrypted IPsec workloads. He applied assembly language programming and low-level optimization to deliver a vectorized cryptographic path that maintained API compatibility and stability. In a subsequent phase, Armon refactored the AES_CFB_DEC parallel processing logic, consolidating input checks to reduce code duplication and improve maintainability. His work focused on assembly and SSE intrinsics, resulting in a cleaner, more scalable codebase that supports future optimizations and eases onboarding for other engineers.

September 2025: Intel IPsec MB focused on refactoring and maintainability of the AES_CFB_DEC parallel path, delivering a clean, scalable foundation for future optimizations.
