Block Ciphers And Cryptanalysis
نویسنده
چکیده
This report gives a basic introduction to block cipher design and analysis. The concepts and design principles of block ciphers are explained, particularly the class of block ciphers known as Feistel ciphers. Some modern block cipher cryptanalysis methods are demonstrated by applying them to variants of a weak Feistel cipher called Simplified TEA (STEA), which is based on the Tiny Encryption Algorithm (TEA).

A new method for accelerating impossible differential cryptanalysis and its application on LBlock
Impossible differential cryptanalysis, the extension of differential cryptanalysis, is one of the most efficient attacks against block ciphers. This cryptanalysis method has been applied to most of the block ciphers and has shown significant results. Using structures, key schedule considerations, early abort, and pre-computation are some common methods to reduce complexities of this attack. In ...
متن کاملImpossible Differential Cryptanalysis of Reduced-Round Midori64 Block Cipher (Extended Version)
Impossible differential attack is a well-known mean to examine robustness of block ciphers. Using impossible differ- ential cryptanalysis, we analyze security of a family of lightweight block ciphers, named Midori, that are designed considering low energy consumption. Midori state size can be either 64 bits for Midori64 or 128 bits for Midori128; however, both vers...
متن کاملBiclique Cryptanalysis of Block Ciphers LBlock and TWINE-80 with Practical Data Complexity
In the biclique attack, a shorter biclique usually results in less data complexity, but at the expense of more computational complexity. The early abort technique can be used in partial matching part of the biclique attack in order to slightly reduce the computations. In this paper, we make use of this technique, but instead of slight improvement in the computational complexity, we keep the amo...
متن کاملIntegral Cryptanalysis and Higher Order Differential Attack
Integral cryptanalysis and higher order differential attack are chosen(or known) plaintext attacks on block ciphers. These attacks have been developed independently and become widely used as strong tools to analyze the security of block ciphers. In this paper, basic idea of these attacks including brief historical comments is described. We give some recent applications of integral cryptanalysis...
متن کاملRelated-Cipher Attacks on Block Ciphers with Flexible Number of Rounds
Related-cipher attack was introduced by Hongjun Wu in 2002 [25]. We can consider related ciphers as block ciphers with the same round function but different number of rounds. This attack can be applied to related ciphers by using the fact that their key schedules do not depend on the total number of rounds. In this paper we introduce differential related-cipher attack on block ciphers, which co...
