Abstract. SQUARE, an 8-round substitution-permutation block cipher, is considered as the predecessor of the AES. In this paper, inspired from the recent biclique attack on the AES ...
In this paper we present an improvement of the differential attack on hash functions based on block ciphers. By using the specific properties of the collision attack on hash functi...
In this paper, we present a statistical saturation attack that combines previously introduced cryptanalysis techniques against block ciphers. As the name suggests, the attack is st...
In 1980 Hellman introduced a general technique for breaking arbitrary block ciphers with N possible keys in time T and memory M related by the tradeoff curve TM2 = N2 for 1 T N. ...
Constructions for hash functions based on a block cipher are studied where the size of the hashcode is equal to the block length of the block cipher and where the key size is appro...
