BBB security for 5-round even-Mansour-based key-alternating Feistel ciphers

Ritam Bhaumik

In this paper, we study the security of the Key-Alternating Feistel (KAF) ciphers, a class of key alternating ciphers with the Feistel structure, where each round of the cipher is instantiated with n-bit public round permutation Pi\documentclass[12pt]{mini ...

Serial Lightweight Implementation Techniques for Block Ciphers

Muhammed Fatih Balli

Most of the cryptographic protocols that we use frequently on the internet are designed in a fashion that they are not necessarily suitable to run in constrained environments. Applications that run on limited-battery, with low computational power, or area ...

A Deeper Look at the Energy Consumption of Lightweight Block Ciphers

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

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 ...

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 ...

Melting SNOW-V: Improved Lightweight Architectures

Andrea Felice Caforio, Subhadeep Banik, Muhammed Fatih Balli

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 ...

The Area-Latency Symbiosis: Towards Improved Serial Encryption Circuits

Andrea Felice Caforio, Subhadeep Banik, Muhammed Fatih Balli

The bit-sliding paper of Jean et al. (CHES 2017) showed that the smallest-size circuit for SPN based block ciphers such as AES, SKINNY and PRESENT can be achieved via bit-serial implementations. Their technique decreases the bit size of the datapath and na ...

Persistent faults mark a new class of injections that perturb lookup tables within block ciphers with the overall goal of recovering the encryption key. Unlike earlier fault types persistent faults remain intact over many encryptions until the affected dev ...

Towards Low Energy Stream Ciphers

Francesco Regazzoni, Subhadeep Banik, Willi Meier

Energy optimization is an important design aspect of lightweight cryptography. Since low energy ciphers drain less battery, they are invaluable components of devices that operate on a tight energy budget such as handheld devices or RFID tags. At Asiacrypt ...

On Design of Robust Lightweight Stream Cipher with Short Internal State

Subhadeep Banik

The stream cipher Sprout with a short internal state was proposed in FSE 2015. Although the construction guaranteed resistance to generic Time Memory Data Tradeoff attacks, there were some weaknesses in the design and the cipher was completely broken. In t ...
