With the establishment of the AES the need for new block ciphers has been greatly diminished; for almost all block cipher applications the AES is an excellent and preferred choice....

This paper presents several methods to construct trapdoor block ciphers. A trapdoor cipher contains some hidden structure; knowledge of this structure allows an attacker to obtain ...
In this paper, we revisit the security of several message authentication code (MAC) algorithms based on block ciphers, when instantiated with 64-bit block ciphers such as DES. We e...
We investigate some of the algebraic properties of the SAFER block cipher when the message space is considered as a Z-module. In particular we consider the invariant Z-submodules ...
In this paper we present the block cipher Rijndael, which is one of the fifteen candidate algorithms for the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). We show that the cipher can be impl...
