Triple Key Security Algorithm Against Single Key Attack on Multiple Rounds

A Differential Fault Attack Against Early Rounds of (Triple-)DES

Previously proposed differential fault analysis (DFA) techniques against iterated block ciphers mostly exploit computational errors in the last few rounds of the cipher to extract the secret key. In this paper we describe a DFA attack that exploits computational errors in early rounds of a Feistel cipher. The principle of the attack is to force collisions by inducing faults in intermediate resu...

A Known Plaintext Attack on Two-Key Triple Encryption

A chosen-plaintext attack on two-key triple encryption noted by Merkle and Hellman is extended to a known-plaintext attack. The known-plaintext attack has lower memory requirements than the chosen-plaintext attack, but has a greater running time. The new attack is a significant improvement over a known-plaintext brute-force attack, but is still not seen as a serious threat to two-key triple enc...

A related key impossible differential attack against 22 rounds of the lightweight block cipher LBlock

Secure Message Authentication Against Related-Key Attack

Security against related-key attacks is an important criteria for modern cryptographic constructions. In the related-key setting, the adversary has the ability to query the underlying function on the target key as well as on some related-keys. Although provable security against related-key attack has received considerable attention in recent years, most of the results in the literature aim to a...

Mitigating Node Capture Attack in Random Key Distribution Schemes through Key Deletion

Random Key Distribution (RKD) schemes have been widely accepted to enable low-cost secure communications in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). However, efficiency of secure link establishment comes with the risk of compromised communications between benign nodes by adversaries who physically capture sensor nodes. The challenge is to enhance resilience of WSN against node capture, while maintainin...
