چکیده
In 2011, prompted by potential U.S. government requirements for lightweight ciphers (e.g., SCADA and logistics applications) and concerns that existing cryptographic solutions were unnecessarily restrictive, a team of cryptographic designers was formed within the National Information Assurance Research Laboratory of NSA’s Research Directorate, with the goal of designing foundational lightweight cryptographic block ciphers. See [Age16]. Simon and Speck [BSS13] emerged from that research effort in 2013.

Notes on the design and analysis of Simon and Speck
In 2011, prompted by potential U.S. government requirements for lightweight ciphers (e.g., SCADA and logistics applications) and concerns that existing cryptographic solutions were unnecessarily restrictive, a team of cryptographic designers was formed within the Information Assurance Research Laboratory of NSA’s Research Directorate, with the goal of designing foundational lightweight cryptogr...
متن کاملDifferential Cryptanalysis of Round-Reduced Simon and Speck
This paper presents differential attacks on Simon and Speck, two families of lightweight block ciphers that were presented by the U.S. National Security Agency in June 2013. We describe attacks on up to slightly more than half the number of rounds. While our analysis is only of academic interest, it demonstrates the drawback of the intensive optimizations in Simon and Speck.
متن کاملDesign and Fabrication of a Quartz Crystal Resonator Used in a Thickness-Monitor Unit (TECHNICAL NOTES).
This paper deals with the design and fabrication of a quartz-crystal resonator used in a thickness-monitor unit, measuring film thickness in a film-depositing system. A purpose-grown quartz crystal is cut to form the desired wafer. Two gold electrodes are deposited on both surfaces of the wafer to provide electrical contacts. The resonance frequency of the resonator, at room temperature, and th...
متن کاملThe Simon and Speck Block Ciphers on AVR 8-Bit Microcontrollers
The last several years have witnessed a surge of activity in lightweight cryptographic design. Many lightweight block ciphers have been proposed, targeted mostly at hardware applications. Typically software performance has not been a priority, and consequently software performance for many of these algorithms is unexceptional. Simon and Speck are lightweight block cipher families developed by t...
متن کاملDifferential Analysis of Block Ciphers SIMON and SPECK
In this paper we continue the previous line of research on the analysis of the differential properties of the lightweight block ciphers Simon and Speck. We apply a recently proposed technique for automatic search for differential trails in ARX ciphers and improve the trails in Simon32 and Simon48 previously reported as best. We further extend the search technique for the case of differentials a...
