Fast Algebraic Attacks on Stream Ciphers with Linear Feedback
Many popular stream ciphers apply a filter/combiner to the state of one or several LFSRs. Algebraic attacks on such ciphers [10, 11] are possible, if there is a multivariate relat...

Improving the Lower Bound on the Higher Order Nonlinearity of Boolean Functions With Prescribed Algebraic Immunity
Abstract. The recent algebraic attacks have received a lot of attention in cryptographic literature. The algebraic immunity of a Boolean function quantifies its resistance to the s...

F-FCSR: Design of a New Class of Stream Ciphers
In this paper we present a new class of stream ciphers based on a very simple mechanism. The heart of our method is a Feedback with Carry Shift Registers (FCSR) automaton. This au...

Algebraic Attacks on Stream Ciphers with Linear Feedback
A classical construction of stream ciphers is to combine several LFSRs and a highly non-linear Boolean function f. Their security is usually analysed in terms of correlation attack...

Heuristic search for non-linear cryptanalytic approximations
— In this work, we show that heuristic techniques (particularly Simulated Annealing) can be successfully applied in the search of good non-linear approximations of cryptographic ...
