The contributions of this paper include the first linear hull and a revisit of the algebraic cryptanalysis of reduced-round variants of the block cipher PRESENT, under known-plaintext and ciphertext- only settings. We introduce a pure algebraic cryptanalys ...
Decorrelation Theory deals with general adversaries who are mounting iterated attacks, i.e., attacks in which an adversary is allowed to make d queries in each iteration with the aim of distinguishing a random cipher C from the ideal random cipher C^*. A b ...
In this article we present a lattice attack done on a NTRU-like scheme introduced by Verkhovsky in [1]. We show how, based on the relation between the public and private key, we can construct an attack which allows any passive adversary to decrypt the encr ...
We introduce KFC, a block cipher based on a three round Feistel scheme. Each of the three round functions has an SPN-like structure for which we can either compute or bound the advantage of the best d-limited adaptive distinguisher, for any value of d. Usi ...
In this paper, we describe a sequence of simple, yet e cient chosen-plaintext (or chosen-ciphertext) attacks against reduced-round versions of IDEA (with 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, and 4 rounds) which compare favourably with the best known attacks: some of them decre ...
TCHo is a public-key cryptosystem based on the hardness of finding a multiple polynomial with low weight and on the hardness of distinguishing between the output of an LFSR with noise and some random source. An early version was proposed in 2006 by Finiasz ...
Inspired by fast correlation attacks on stream ciphers, we present a stream cipher-like construction for a public-key cryptosystem whose security relies on two problems: finding a low-weight multiple of a given polynomial and a Hidden Correlation problem. ...
At Crypto 2004, van Dijk and Woodruff introduced a new way of using the algebraic tori Tn in cryptography, and obtained an asymptotically optimal n/ϕ(n) savings in bandwidth and storage for a number of cryptographic applications. However, the compu ...
The main goal of this diploma work is the implementation of Matsui's linear cryptanalysis of DES and a statistical and theoretical analysis of its complexity and success probability. In order to achieve this goal, we implement first a very fast DES routine ...
Iterated attacks are comprised of iterating adversaries who can make d plaintext queries, in each iteration to compute a bit, and are trying to distinguish between a random cipher C and the ideal random cipher C∗ based on all bits. In EUROCRYPT '99, ...
