We analyze the security of elastic block ciphers against key-recovery attacks. An elastic version of a fixed-length block cipher is a variable-length block cipher that supports an...
In this paper, we revisit the security of several message authentication code (MAC) algorithms based on block ciphers, when instantiated with 64-bit block ciphers such as DES. We e...
Cryptographic hash functions are often built on block ciphers in order to reduce the security of the hash to that of the cipher, and to minimize the hardware size. Proven secure co...
Abstract. In ISNN’04, a novel symmetric cipher was proposed, by combining a chaotic signal and a clipped neural network (CNN) for encryption. The present paper analyzes the secur...
