Impossible boomerang attack [5] (IBA) is a new variant of differential cryptanalysis against block ciphers. Evident from its name, it combines the ideas of both impossible differ...
In this paper, we describe the design of a new family of block ciphers based on a Lai-Massey scheme, named FOX. The main features of this design, besides a very high security level...
We introduce “mod n cryptanalysis,” a form of partitioning attack that is effective against ciphers which rely on modular addition and bit rotations for their security. We dem...
This paper observes the cryptanalysis of the Telecommunications Industry Association's Cellular Message Encryption Algorithm (CMEA). The CMEA has been widely used for wireles...
Abstract. Synchronous stream ciphers need perfect synchronization between sender and receiver. In practice, this is ensured by a resync mechanism. Daemen et al. [10] first describ...
