Abstract. Grain [11] is a lightweight stream cipher submitted by M. Hell, T. Johansson, and W. Meier to the eSTREAM call for stream cipher proposals of the European project ECRYPT ...
The security of hash functions has recently become one of the hottest topics in the design and analysis of cryptographic primitives. Since almost all the hash functions used today ...
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...
The main application of stream ciphers is online-encryption of arbitrarily long data, for example when transmitting speech data between a Bluetooth headset and a mobile GSM phone o...
Self-Synchronizing Stream Ciphers (SSSC) are a particular class of symmetric encryption algorithms, such that the resynchronization is automatic, in case of error during the transm...
DECIM is a hardware oriented stream cipher with an 80-bit key and a 64-bit IV. In this paper, we point out two serious flaws in DECIM. One flaw is in the initialization of DECIM. I...
