We investigate the bit-search type irregular decimation algorithms that are used within LFSR-based stream ciphers. In particular, we concentrate on BSG and ABSG, and consider two ...

Let X1, X2, . . . , Xk be independent n bit random variables. If they have arbitrary distributions, we show how to compute distributions like Pr{X1 ⊕ X2 ⊕ · · · ⊕ Xk} and ...
Self-Synchronizing Stream Ciphers (SSSC) are a particular class of symmetric encryption algorithms, such that the resynchronization is automatic, in case of error during the transm...
Ding et al [DNRS97] propose a stream generator based on several layers. We present several attacks. First, we observe that the non-surjectivity of a linear combination step allows ...

The stream cipher Salsa20 was introduced by Bernstein in 2005 as a candidate in the eSTREAM project, accompanied by the reduced versions Salsa20/8 and Salsa20/12. ChaCha is a varia...
