Balanced Feistel networks (BFN) have been widely used for constructing efficient block ciphers. They are known to provide high efficiency with respect to differential and linear c...
Understanding what construction strategy has a chance to be a good hash function is extremely important nowadays. In TCC'04, Maurer et al. [13] introduced the notion of indiff...
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...
In this work we re-visit the question of building cryptographic primitives that remain secure even when queried on inputs that depend on the secret key. This was investigated by B...
This article presents some new results concerning two algebraic attacks against the F-FCSR constructions proposed in [2]. We focus on the parameters of the stream ciphers proposed ...
