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

Z_{2^{32} - 1}

Lightweight Block Ciphers Revisited: Cryptanalysis of Reduced Round PRESENT and HIGHT

Onur Özen, Cihangir Tezcan, Kerem Varici

Design and analysis of lightweight block ciphers have become more popular due to the fact that the future use of block ciphers in ubiquitous devices is generally assumed to be extensive. In this respect, several lightweight block ciphers are designed, of w ...

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 ...

Advanced Differential-Style Cryptanalysis of the NSA's Skipjack Block Cipher

Skipjack is a block cipher designed by the NSA for use in US government phones, and commercial mobile and wireless products by ATT. Among its initial implementations in hardware were the Clipper chip and Fortezza PC cards, which have since influenced the p ...

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 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 ...

Improved Cryptanalysis of Skein

Willi Meier, Onur Özen, Jean-Philippe Aumasson

The hash function Skein is the submission of Ferguson et al. to the NIST Hash Competition, and is arguably a serious candidate for selection as SHA-3. This paper presents the first third-party analysis of Skein, with an extensive study of its main componen ...

Quantitative security of block ciphers

Thomas Baignères

Block ciphers probably figure in the list of the most important cryptographic primitives. Although they are used for many different purposes, their essential goal is to ensure confidentiality. This thesis is concerned by their quantitative security, that i ...

Analysis of lightweight stream ciphers

Simon Fischer

Stream ciphers are fast cryptographic primitives to provide confidentiality of electronically transmitted data. They can be very suitable in environments with restricted resources, such as mobile devices or embedded systems. Practical examples are cell pho ...

Linear Cryptanalysis of Non Binary Ciphers (with an application to SAFER)

Serge Vaudenay, Thomas Baignères, Jacques Stern

In this paper we re-visit distinguishing attacks. We show how to generalize the notion of linear distinguisher to arbitrary sets. Our thesis is that our generalization is the most natural one. We compare it with the one by Granboulan et al. from FSE'06 by ...
