چکیده
The goal of the present paper is a survey of methods to solve equation systems common in cryptanalysis. The methods depend on the equation representation and fall into three categories: Gröbner basis algorithms, SAT-solving methods and Agreeing-Gluing algorithms.

Extension of Cube Attack with Probabilistic Equations and its Application on Cryptanalysis of KATAN Cipher
Cube Attack is a successful case of Algebraic Attack. Cube Attack consists of two phases, linear equation extraction and solving the extracted equation system. Due to the high complexity of equation extraction phase in finding linear equations, we can extract nonlinear ones that could be approximated to linear equations with high probability. The probabilistic equations could be considered as l...
متن کاملAlgebraic Cryptanalysis of Simplified AES
Simplified AES was developed in 2003 as a teaching tool to help students understand AES. It was designed so that the two primary attacks on symmetric-key block ciphers of that time, differential cryptanalysis and linear cryptanalysis, are not trivial on simplified AES. Algebraic cryptanalysis is a technique that uses modern equation solvers to attack cryptographic algorithms. There have been so...
متن کاملNumerical solution of higher index DAEs using their IAE's structure: Trajectory-prescribed path control problem and simple pendulum
In this paper, we solve higher index differential algebraic equations (DAEs) by transforming them into integral algebraic equations (IAEs). We apply collocation methods on continuous piece-wise polynomials space to solve the obtained higher index IAEs. The efficiency of the given method is improved by using a recursive formula for computing the integral part. Finally, we apply the obtained algo...
متن کاملA Characteristic Set Method for Equation Solving in F2 and Applications in Cryptanalysis of Stream Ciphers
In this paper, we present a characteristic set method to solve polynomial equation systems in the finite field F2. Due to the special property of F2, the given characteristic set methods are much more efficient and simpler than the general characteristic set method. We also use our methods to solve equations raised from cryptanalysis of stream ciphers based on nonlinear filter generators.
متن کاملComputational and Algebraic Aspects of the Advanced Encryption Standard
The new Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) has been recently selected by the US government to replace the old Data Encryption Standard (DES) for protecting sensitive official information. Due to its simplicity and elegant algebraic structure, the choice of the AES algorithm has motivated the study of a new approach to the analysis of block ciphers. While conventional methods of cryptanalysis (e...
