Matsui’s one-dimensional Alg. 2 can be used for recovering bits of the last round key of a block cipher. In this paper a truly multidimensional extension of Alg. 2 based on estab...
Contrarily to Kerckhoffs’ principle, many applications of today’s cryptography still adopt the security by obscurity paradigm. Furthermore, in order to rely on its proven or e...
This paper presents a DES/3DES core that will support Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) and also has a built in keygen that together take up about 10% of the resources in a Xilinx Virte...
Abstract. We present new related-key attacks on the block ciphers 3WAY, Biham-DES, CAST, DES-X, NewDES, RC2, and TEA. Differential related-key attacks allow both keys and plaintex...
Abstract. The security of iterated hash functions relies on the properties of underlying compression functions. We study highly efficient compression functions based on block ciphe...
