This paper reviews constructions of hash functions and MAC algorithms based on block ciphers. It discusses the main requirements for these cryptographic primitives, motivates these...
We revisit meet-in-the-middle attacks on block ciphers and recent developments in meet-in-the-middle preimage attacks on hash functions. Despite the presence of a secret key in the...

We propose a general framework for differential and linear cryptanalysis of block ciphers when the block is not a bitstring. We prove piling-up lemmas for the generalized different...
A vast amount of literature on stream ciphers is directed to the cryptanalysis of LFSR-based filters and combiners, resulting in various attack models such as distinguishing attac...
