Although many strong cryptanalytic tools exploit weaknesses in the data-randomizinig part of a block cipher, relatively few general tools for cryptanalyzing on the other part, the ...
Abstract. The main contribution of this paper is a new iterated secretkey block cipher called 3D, inspired by the AES cipher. The 3D cipher has an SPN design, operates on 512-bit b...
A method for extracting cryptographic key material from DRAM used in modern computers has been recently proposed in [9]; the technique was called Cold Boot attacks. When considerin...
Recently a powerful cryptanalytic tool—the slide attack— was introduced [3]. Slide attacks are very successful in breaking iterative ciphers with a high degree of self-similari...
Twofish is a new block cipher with a 128 bit block, and a key length of 128, 192, or 256 bits, which has been submitted as an AES candidate. In this paper, we briefly review the st...
