The Design of a Stream Cipher LEX
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we define a notion of leak extraction from a block cipher. We demonstrate this new concept on an example of AES. A result is LEX: a simple AES-based stream cipher which is at least 2.5 times faster than AES both in software and in hardware.

A New Attack on the LEX Stream Cipher
In [6], Biryukov presented a new methodology of stream cipher design, called leak extraction. The stream cipher LEX, based on this methodology and on the AES block cipher, was selected to phase 3 of the eSTREAM competition. The suggested methodology seemed promising, and LEX, due to its elegance, simplicity and performance was expected to be selected to the eSTREAM portfolio. In this paper we s...
متن کاملTweLEX: A Tweaked Version of the LEX Stream Cipher
LEX is a stream cipher proposed by Alex Biryukov. It was selected to phase 3 of the eSTREAM competition. LEX is based on the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) block cipher and uses a methodology called Leak Extraction, proposed by Biryukov himself. However Dunkelman and Keller show that a key recovery attack exists against LEX. Their attack requires 2 bytes of keystream produced by the same ke...

متن کاملCryptanalysis of Ciphers Based on AES Structure
AES is the best known and most widely used block cipher. Its three versions (AES-128, AES-192, and AES-256) differ in their key sizes (128 bits, 192 bits and 256 bits) and in their number of rounds (10, 12, and 14, respectively). Our present work investigates the recently reported attacks on AES 256 and AES 192. Instead of concentrating on the actual algorithms of these attacks we shall be more...
