Abstract. In this article, it is discussed how to construct a compression function with 2n-bit output using a component function with n-bit output. The component function is either...
Matsui's linear cryptanalysis for iterated block ciphers is generalized to an attack called. This attack exploits a weakness that can be described by an e ective partition-pa...
A new scheme for transmitting sensitive data is proposed, the proposed scheme depends on partitioning the output of a block encryption module using the Chinese Remainder Theorem a...
n, important for interoperability only. We can make abstraction from the representation of the elements of GF(28 ) and consider a block cipher that operates on strings of elements ...
This document describes the RC5 encryption algorithm, a fast symmetric block cipher suitable for hardware or software implementations. A novel feature of RC5 is the heavy use of da...
