New Impossible Differential and Known-Key Distinguishers for the 3D Cipher

The contributions of this paper are new 6-round impossible-differential (ID) and 9.75-round known-key distinguishers for the 3D block cipher. The former was constructed using the miss-in-the-middle technique, while the latter with an inside-out technique. ...

ARMADILLO: A Multi-purpose Cryptographic Primitive Dedicated to Hardware

Serge Vaudenay, Stéphane Badel, Pouyan Sepehrdad, Nilay Dagtekin, Khaled Ouafi, Jorge Nakahara, Petr Susil

This paper describes and analyzes the security of a general-purpose cryptographic function design, with application in RFID tags and sensor networks. Based on these analyzes, we suggest minimum parameter values for the main components of this cryptographic ...

Cryptanalysis of reduced-round MIBS Block cipher

Serge Vaudenay, Jorge Nakahara, Asli Bay

This paper presents the first independent and systematic lin- ear, differential and impossible-differential (ID) cryptanalyses of MIBS, a lightweight block cipher aimed at constrained devices such as RFID tags and sensor networks. Our contributions include ...

Algebraic, AIDA/Cube and Side Channel Analysis of KATAN Family of Block Ciphers

Pouyan Sepehrdad, Jorge Nakahara

This paper presents the first results on AIDA/cube, algebraic and side-channel attacks on variable number of rounds of all members of the KATAN family of block ciphers. Our cube attacks reach 60, 40 and 30 rounds of KATAN32, KATAN48 and KATAN64, respective ...

Linear (Hull) and Algebraic Cryptanalysis of the Block Cipher PRESENT

Pouyan Sepehrdad, Jorge Nakahara

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 ...

Cryptanalysis of the ISDB Scrambling Algorithm (MULTI2)

Pouyan Sepehrdad, Jorge Nakahara, Jean-Philippe Aumasson

MULTI2 is the block cipher used in the ISDB standard for scrambling digital multimedia content. MULTI2 is used in Japan to se- cure multimedia broadcasting, including recent applications like HDTV and mobile TV. It is the only cipher speciﬁed in the 2007 J ...

A new approach to chi^2 cryptanalysis of block ciphers

Jorge Nakahara

The main contribution of this paper is a new approach to χ2 analyses of block ciphers in which plaintexts are chosen in a manner similar to that in a square/saturation attack. The consequence is a faster detection of χ2 correlation when compared to convent ...

Cryptanalysis of the full MMB Block Cipher

Jorge Nakahara, Yue Sun

The block cipher MMB was designed by Daemen, Govaerts and Vandewalle, in 1993, as an alternative to the IDEA block cipher. We exploit and describe unusual properties of the modular multiplication in ZZ232 −1 , which lead to a diﬀerential attack on the full ...

3D: A Three-Dimensional Block Cipher

Jorge Nakahara

The main contribution of this paper is a new iterated secret- key block cipher called 3D, inspired by the AES cipher. The 3D cipher has an SPN design, operates on 512-bit blocks, uses 512-bit keys, it- erates 22 rounds, and employs a 3-dimensional state, i ...
