An Ultra-High Throughput AES-Based Authenticated Encryption Scheme for 6G: Design and Implementation

In this paper, we propose Rocca-S, an authenticated encryption scheme with a 256-bit key and a 256-bit tag targeting 6G applications bootstrapped from AES. Rocca-S achieves an encryption/decryption speed of more than 200 Gbps in the latest software environ ...

Near Collision Attack Against Grain V1

Subhadeep Banik, Willi Meier, Daniel Patrick Collins

A near collision attack against the Grain v1 stream cipher was proposed by Zhang et al. in Eurocrypt 18. The attack uses the fact that two internal states of the stream cipher with very low hamming distance between them, produce similar keystream sequences ...

Melting SNOW-V: improved lightweight architectures

Subhadeep Banik, Muhammed Fatih Balli, Andrea Felice Caforio

SNOW-V is a stream cipher proposed by Ekdahl et al. at IACR ToSC 2019(3) with an objective to be deployed as the encryption primitive in 5G systems. The stream cipher offers 256-bit security and is ready for deployment in the post-quantum era, in which as ...

Complete Practical Side-Channel-Assisted Reverse Engineering of AES-Like Ciphers

Subhadeep Banik, Muhammed Fatih Balli, Andrea Felice Caforio

Public knowledge about the structure of a cryptographic system is a standard assumption in the literature and algorithms are expected to guarantee security in a setting where only the encryption key is kept secret. Nevertheless, undisclosed proprietary cry ...

Bias Cancellation of MixColumns

Francesco Regazzoni, Subhadeep Banik, Andrea Felice Caforio

At COSADE'2020, Carre et al. established a novel biascancelling property of the AES MixColumns matrix that effectively corrects any skewed output distribution of a state byte due to a faulty substitution box. Consequently, any effected byte is rendered uni ...

Improving First-Order Threshold Implementations of SKINNY

Subhadeep Banik, Andrea Felice Caforio, Ognjen Glamocanin, Daniel Patrick Collins

Threshold Implementations have become a popular generic technique to construct circuits resilient against power analysis attacks.In this paper, we look to devise efficient threshold circuits for the lightweight block cipher family SKINNY. The only threshol ...

A Deeper Look at the Energy Consumption of Lightweight Block Ciphers

Francesco Regazzoni, Subhadeep Banik, Muhammed Fatih Balli, Andrea Felice Caforio

In the last few years, the field of lightweight cryptography has seen an influx in the number of block ciphers and hash functions being proposed. In the past there have been numerous papers that have looked at circuit level implementation of block ciphers ...

Perfect Trees: Designing Energy-Optimal Symmetric Encryption Primitives

Subhadeep Banik, Andrea Felice Caforio

Energy efficiency is critical in battery-driven devices, and designing energy-optimal symmetric-key ciphers is one of the goals for the use of ciphers in such environments. In the paper by Banik et al. (IACR ToSC 2018), stream ciphers were identified as id ...

Orthros: A Low-Latency PRF

Subhadeep Banik

We present Orthros, a 128-bit block pseudorandom function. It is designed with primary focus on latency of fully unrolled circuits. For this purpose, we adopt a parallel structure comprising two keyed permutations. The round function of each permutation is ...

Further Results on Efficient Implementations of Block Cipher Linear Layers

Subhadeep Banik

At the FSE conference of ToSC 2018, Kranz et al. presented their results on shortest linear programs for the linear layers of several well known block ciphers in literature. Shortest linear programs are essentially the minimum number of 2-input xor gates r ...
