On Constructions of a Sort of MDS Block Diffusion Matrices for Block Ciphers and Hash Functions
Many modern block ciphers use maximum distance separate (MDS) matrices as their diffusion layers. In this paper, we propose a new method to verify a sort of MDS diffusion block matrices whose blocks are all polynomials in a certain primitive block over the finite field F2. And then we discover a new kind of transformations that can retain MDS property of diffusion matrices and generate a series...
متن کاملPerfect Diffusion Primitives for Block Ciphers -- Building Efficient MDS Matrices
Although linear perfect diffusion primitives, i.e. MDS matrices, are widely used in block ciphers, e.g. AES, very little systematic work has been done on how to find “efficient” ones. In this paper we attempt to do so by considering software implementations on various platforms. These considerations lead to interesting combinatorial problems: how to maximize the number of occurrences of 1 in th...
متن کاملRecursive Diffusion Layers for Block Ciphers and Hash Functions
Many modern block ciphers use maximum distance separable (MDS) matrices as the main part of their diffusion layers. In this paper, we propose a new class of diffusion layers constructed from several rounds of Feistel-like structures whose round functions are linear. We investigate the requirements of the underlying linear functions to achieve the maximal branch number for the proposed 4×4 words...
متن کاملNew Design Criteria for Hash Functions and Block Ciphers
Cryptographic primitives, such as hash functions and block ciphers, are integral components in several practical cryptographic schemes. In order to prove security of these schemes, a variety of security assumptions are made on the underlying hash function or block cipher, such as collision-resistance, pseudorandomness etc. In fact, such assumptions are often made without much regard for the act...
متن کاملCryptographic Randomness Testing of Block Ciphers and Hash Functions
One of the most basic properties expected from block ciphers and hash functions is passing statistical randomness testing, as they are expected to behave like random mappings. Previously, testing of AES candidate block ciphers was done by concatenating the outputs of the algorithms obtained from various input types. In this work, a more convenient method, namely the cryptographic randomness tes...
