چکیده

We introduce KFC, a block cipher based on a three round Feistel scheme. Each of the three round functions has an SPN-like structure for which we can either compute or bound the advantage of the best d-limited adaptive distinguisher, for any value of d. Using results from the decorrelation theory, we extend these results to the whole KFC construction. To the best of our knowledge, KFC is the first practical (in the sense that it can be implemented) block cipher to propose tight security proofs of resistance against large classes of attacks, including most classical cryptanalysis (such as linear and differential cryptanalysis, taking hull effect in consideration in both cases, higher order differential cryptanalysis, the boomerang attack, differential-linear cryptanalysis, and others).

Building Secure Block Ciphers on Generic Attacks Assumptions

Up to now, the design of block ciphers has been mainly driven by heuristic arguments, and little theory is known to constitute a good guideline for the development of their architecture. Trying to remedy this situation, we introduce a new type of design for symmetric cryptographic primitives with high self-similarity. Our design strategy enables to give a reductionist security proof for the pri...

Permutation Generators Based on Unbalanced Feistel Network: Analysis of the Conditions of Pseudorandomness

A block cipher is a bijective function that transforms a plaintext to a ciphertext. A block cipher is a principle component in a cryptosystem because the security of a cryptosystem depends on the security of a block cipher. A Feistel network is the most widely used method to construct a block cipher. This structure has a property such that it can transform a function to a bijective function. Bu...

Quasigroup representation of some lightweight block ciphers

Most of the lightweight block ciphers are build as S-P networks or Feistel networks, their generalization or variations. We represent the lightweight Feistel ciphers GOST and MIBS, and Generalized Feistel cipher Skipjack by quasigroup string transformations. For obtaining suitable representation we use the fact that Feistel round functions that are bijections can be considered as orthomorphisms...

Block Ciphers And Cryptanalysis

This report gives a basic introduction to block cipher design and analysis. The concepts and design principles of block ciphers are explained, particularly the class of block ciphers known as Feistel ciphers. Some modern block cipher cryptanalysis methods are demonstrated by applying them to variants of a weak Feistel cipher called Simplified TEA (STEA), which is based on the Tiny Encryption Al...

On Lai-Massey and quasi-Feistel ciphers

We introduce a newnotion called a quasi-Feistel cipher, which is a generalization of the Feistel cipher, and contains the Lai–Massey cipher as an instance. We show that most of the works on the Feistel cipher can be naturally extended to the quasi-Feistel cipher. From this, we give a new proof for Vaudenay’s theorems on the security of the Lai–Massey cipher, and also we introduce for Lai–Massey...
