PRESENT: An Ultra-Lightweight Block Cipher
نویسندگان
چکیده
With the establishment of the AES the need for new block ciphers has been greatly diminished; for almost all block cipher applications the AES is an excellent and preferred choice. However, despite recent implementation advances, the AES is not suitable for extremely constrained environments such as RFID tags and sensor networks. In this paper we describe an ultra-lightweight block cipher, present. Both security and hardware efficiency have been equally important during the design of the cipher and at 1570 GE, the hardware requirements for present are competitive with today’s leading compact stream ciphers.

Total break of Zorro using linear and differential attacks
An AES-like lightweight block cipher, namely Zorro, was proposed in CHES 2013. While it has a 16-byte state, it uses only 4 S-Boxes per round. This weak nonlinearity was widely criticized, insofar as it has been directly exploited in all the attacks on Zorro reported by now, including the weak key, reduced round, and even full round attacks. In this paper, using some properties discovered by Wa...
متن کاملHalka: A Lightweight, Software Friendly Block Cipher Using Ultra-lightweight 8-bit S-box
This paper presents the design of a lightweight, yet software friendly, block cipher. Most of the lightweight block ciphers are nibbleoriented as the implementation of a 4-bit S-box is much more compact than an 8-bit S-box. This paper uses a novel implementation of multiplicative inverse for 8-bit S-boxes using LFSR requiring only 138 gateequivalent. With this powerful scheme, we design a light...
متن کاملHummingbird: Ultra-Lightweight Cryptography for Resource-Constrained Devices
Due to the tight cost and constrained resources of highvolume consumer devices such as RFID tags, smart cards and wireless sensor nodes, it is desirable to employ lightweight and specialized cryptographic primitives for many security applications. Motivated by the design of the well-known Enigma machine, we present a novel ultralightweight cryptographic algorithm, referred to as Hummingbird, fo...
متن کاملRectified Differential Cryptanalysis of 16 round Present
In this paper, we have suggested rectifications in differential cryptanalysis of ultra-lightweight block cipher PRESENT reduced to 16 rounds. We have shown that proposed differential attack by Wang [3] on 16 round PRESENT can recover at the most 30 subkey bits, although the author has claimed to recover 32 bits of subkey for last two rounds. We have also computed data complexity and success pro...
متن کاملUltra-lightweight 8-bit Multiplicative Inverse Based S-box Using LFSR
Most of the lightweight block ciphers are nibble-oriented as the implementation of a 4-bit S-box is much more compact than an 8-bit S-box. This paper proposes a novel implementation of multiplicative inverse for 8-bit S-boxes using LFSR requiring only 138 gate-equivalent. It can be shown that if such S-boxes are adopted for the AES it takes less than 50 gate-equivalent per S-box in parallel imp...
