In this paper we consider the security of block ciphers which contain alternate layers of invertible S-boxes and affine mappings (there are many popular cryptosystems which use thi...
This paper presents several multiset and boomerang attacks on Safer++ up to 5.5 out of its 7 rounds. These are the best known attacks for this cipher and significantly improve the...
In this paper we present a new 128-bit block cipher called Square. The original design of Square concentrates on the resistance against dierential and linear cryptanalysis. Howeve...
Abstract. We present a fast involutional block cipher optimized for reconfigurable hardware implementations. ICEBERG uses 64-bit text blocks and 128-bit keys. All components are in...
At Crypto 2007, Joux and Peyrin showed that the boomerang attack, a classical tool in block cipher cryptanalysis, can also be very useful when analyzing hash functions. They applie...
