Breaking the Stream Cipher Whitenoise
نویسنده
چکیده
Whitenoise is a stream cipher with specification given at http://eprint.iacr.org/2003/249. In this paper, we show that Whitenoise is extremely weak. It can be broken by solving about 80,000 linear equations. And only about 80,000 bytes keystream are needed in the attack.

A Security Evaluation of Whitenoise
This report studies the security of Whitenoise, a stream cipher invented by BSB Utilities Inc. I present the results of a limited time analysis of this scheme. After a careful security analysis, I was unable to find any security weaknesses in the Whitenoise stream cipher. Whitenoise resists all of the attack methods I was able to think of. This provides evidence for the security of Whitenoise. ...
متن کاملA Stream Cipher Based on Chaotic Permutations
In this paper we introduce a word-based stream cipher consisting of a chaotic part operating as a chaotic permutation and a linear part, both of which designed on a finite field. We will show that this system can operate in both synchronized and self-synchronized modes. More specifically, we show that in the self-synchronized mode the stream cipher has a receiver operating as an unknown input o...
متن کاملSubmission to ECRYPT call for stream ciphers: the self-synchronizing stream cipher Mosquito
In this document we specify and motivate the hardware-oriented self-synchronizing stream cipher Mosquito and the underlying cipher architecture and provide hardware implementation results. This stream cipher is a close variant of the cipher ΥΓ, described in [2]. ΥΓ in its turn was a corrected version of the cipher KNOT published in [1], removing the weaknesses that have lead to its breaking in ...
متن کاملBiometric Authentication of Fingerprint for Banking Users, Using Stream Cipher Algorithm
Providing banking services, especially online banking and electronic payment systems, has always been associated with high concerns about security risks. In this paper, customer authentication for their transactions in electronic banking has been discussed, and a more appropriate way of using biometric fingerprint data, as well as encrypting those data in a different way, has been suggest...
متن کاملBreaking the F-FCSR-H Stream Cipher in Real Time
The F-FCSR stream cipher family has been presented a few years ago. Apart from some aws in the initial propositions, corrected in a later stage, there are no known weaknesses of the core of these algorithms. The hardware oriented version, called FCSR-H, is one of the ciphers selected for the eSTREAM portfolio. In this paper we present a new and severe cryptanalytic attack on the F-FCSR stream c...
