In this paper we present a new class of stream ciphers based on a very simple mechanism. The heart of our method is a Feedback with Carry Shift Registers (FCSR) automaton. This au...
Abstract. In this paper, we present the rainbow attack on stream ciphers filtered by Maiorana-McFarland functions. This can be considered as a generalization of the time-memory-da...
NLS is a stream cipher which was submitted to eSTREAM project. A linear distinguishing attack against NLS was presented by Cho and Pieprzyk, which was called as Crossword Puzzle at...
Abstract. Feedback with Carry Shift Registers (FCSRs) are a promising alternative to LFSRs in the design of stream ciphers. The previous constructions based on FCSRs were dedicated...
Hermes8 [6,7] is one of the stream ciphers submitted to the ECRYPT Stream Cipher Project (eSTREAM [3]). In this paper we present an analysis of the Hermes8 stream ciphers. In parti...

The Feedback with Carry Shift Registers (FCSRs) have been proposed as an alternative to Linear Feedback Shift Registers (LFSRs) for the design of stream ciphers. FCSRs have good st...
