This paper considers hash functions based on block ciphers. It presents a new attack on the compression function of the 128-bit hash function MDC-4 using DES with a complexity far ...
In this paper we present an improvement of the differential attack on hash functions based on block ciphers. By using the specific properties of the collision attack on hash functi...
We put forward a new model for understanding the security of symmetric-key primitives, such as block ciphers. The model captures the fact that many such primitives often consist of...
We describe a systematic framework for using a stream cipher supporting an initialisation vector (IV) to perform various tasks of authentication and authenticated encryption. These...
Abstract. The main contribution of this paper is a new iterated secretkey block cipher called 3D, inspired by the AES cipher. The 3D cipher has an SPN design, operates on 512-bit b...
