Stream Ciphers: Dead or Alive?
نویسنده
چکیده
Secret key cryptography was traditionally divided into block ciphers and stream ciphers, but over the last 30 years the balance had steadily shifted, and today stream ciphers have become an endangered species. In this talk I'll survey the current state of the art in stream ciphers: who needs them, who uses them, how they are attacked, and how they can be protected by new types of constructions.

Stream ciphers and the eSTREAM project
Stream ciphers are an important class of symmetric cryptographic algorithms. The eSTREAM project contributed significantly to the recent increase of activity in this field. In this paper, we present a survey of the eSTREAM project. We also review recent time/memory/data and time/memory/key trade-offs relevant for the generic attacks on stream ciphers.
متن کاملQur’anic Metaphors and Their English and Persian Translations: Dead or Alive?
The present study aims at discussing whether metaphors in the Qur’an, revealed more than 1400 years ago, are dead, moribund or live and how these three types of metaphors have been translated in three English and three Persian translations of the Qur’an. The results reveal that among 70 metaphors examined, while only about 32.85% are live metaphors, about 67.14% are moribund, but none of the ca...
متن کاملA General Encryption Scheme Based on MDS Code ( Extended Summary )
Many applications, such as wireless communications, high speed multimedia data streaming systems and sensor networks, call for strong ciphers with low computation complexity and high speed in encryption and decryption. Additive stream ciphers usually have lower computation complexity and thus provide higher encryption/decryption speed than block ciphers. An additive stream cipher usually encryp...
متن کاملDifferential Cryptanalysis in Stream Ciphers
In this paper we present a general framework for the application of the ideas of differential cryptanalysis to stream ciphers. We demonstrate that some differences in the key (or the initial state or the plaintext) are likely to cause predicted differences in the key stream or in the internal state. These stream differences can then be used to analyze the internal state of the cipher and retrie...
