Abstract. In this paper we introduce the method of bi-linear cryptanalysis (BLC), designed specifically to attack Feistel ciphers. It allows to construct periodic biased character...
The purpose of algebraic attacks on stream and block ciphers is to recover the secret key by solving an overdefined system of multivariate algebraic equations. They become very eff...
T-functions were introduced by Klimov and Shamir in a series of papers during the last few years. They are of great interest for cryptography as they may provide some new building ...
In this paper we are interested in algebraic immunity of several well known highly-nonlinear vectorial Boolean functions (or Sboxes), designed for block and stream ciphers. Unfortu...
Abstract – In this paper, we propose a modeling approach for the average power consumption of macro-blocks that are typically used in digital signal processing (DSP) systems, suc...
