Algebraic side-channel attacks have been recently introduced as a powerful cryptanalysis technique against block ciphers. These attacks represent both a target algorithm and its ph...
We investigate the security of n-bit to m-bit vectorial Boolean functions in stream ciphers. Such stream ciphers have higher throughput than those using single-bit output Boolean f...

Abstract. The PCBC block cipher mode of operation has many variants, of which one, due to Meyer and Matyas, dates back over 20 years. Whilst a particularly simple variant of PCBC h...
Abstract. This paper discusses the state-of-the-art fast software implementation of block ciphers on Intel’s new microprocessor Core2, particularly concentrating on “bitslice i...
Software cache-based side channel attacks are a serious new class of threats for computers. Unlike physical side channel attacks that mostly target embedded cryptographic devices,...
