Block ciphers are invertible symmetric key cryptographic algorithms. Here, symmetric means that the same cryptographic key is used to both encrypt and decrypt messages. The key is used to transform ...

Cipher block chaining (CBC) is a mode of operation for a block cipher-- one in which a sequence of bits are encrypted as a single unit, or block, with a cipher key applied to the entire block. Cipher ...

Block ciphers, a branch of modern cryptography, are playing a more prominent role in protecting information security as 5G technology develops. Although encryption algorithms of the traditional ...

Zero-correlation linear cryptanalysis is an important method to analyze the security of block ciphers. But there are few works on zero-correlation linear attacks combined with the related-key setting.

The publication of these new quantum security results for Simeck arrives at a moment when the gap between theoretical quantum ...

A new open-source tool automates the search for compact, exact algebraic descriptions of cipher S-boxes, sharply reducing the ...

As you likely know, one of the biggees that the newly ratified 802.11i security standard will bring to the wireless LAN table is Advanced Encryption Standard, the U.S. government’s chosen standard ...
