Recent publications describe profiled single trace side-channel attacks (SCAs) against the DES key-schedule of a “commercially available security controller”. They report a significant reduction of the average remaining entropy of cryptographic keys after the attack, with surprisingly large, key-dependent variations of attack results, and individual cases with remaining key entropies as low as a few bits. Unfortunately, they leave important questions unanswered: Are the reported wide distributions of results plausible - can this be explained? Are the results device- specific or more generally applicable to other devices? What is the actual impact on the security of 3-key triple DES? We systematically answer those and several other questions by analyzing two commercial security controllers and a general purpose microcontroller. We observe a significant overall reduction and, importantly, also observe a large key-dependent variation in single DES key security levels, i.e. -

Implementing side channel attacks is possible if and only if an attacker has access to a cryptosystem (victim) or can interact with cryptosystem remotely to compute time statistics of information that collected from targeted system. Cache timing attack is a special type of side channel attack. Here, timing information caused by cache effect is collected and analyzed by an attacker to guess sensitive information such as encryption key or plaintext. Cache timing attack against AES was known theoretically until Bernstein carry out a real implementation of the attack. Fortunately, this attack can be a success only by exploiting bad implementation in software or hardware, not for algorithm structure weaknesses, and that means attack could be prevented if proper implementation has been used. -
Related-Key Cryptanalysis of 3-WAY, Biham-DES,CAST, DES-X, Newdes, RC2, and TEA
Related-Key Cryptanalysis of 3-WAY, Biham-DES,CAST, DES-X, NewDES, RC2, and TEA John Kelsey Bruce Schneier David Wagner Counterpane Systems U.C. Berkeley kelsey,schneier @counterpane.com [email protected] f g Abstract. We present new related-key attacks on the block ciphers 3- WAY, Biham-DES, CAST, DES-X, NewDES, RC2, and TEA. Differen- tial related-key attacks allow both keys and plaintexts to be chosen with specific differences [KSW96]. Our attacks build on the original work, showing how to adapt the general attack to deal with the difficulties of the individual algorithms. We also give specific design principles to protect against these attacks. 1 Introduction Related-key cryptanalysis assumes that the attacker learns the encryption of certain plaintexts not only under the original (unknown) key K, but also under some derived keys K0 = f(K). In a chosen-related-key attack, the attacker specifies how the key is to be changed; known-related-key attacks are those where the key difference is known, but cannot be chosen by the attacker. We emphasize that the attacker knows or chooses the relationship between keys, not the actual key values. These techniques have been developed in [Knu93b, Bih94, KSW96]. Related-key cryptanalysis is a practical attack on key-exchange protocols that do not guarantee key-integrity|an attacker may be able to flip bits in the key without knowing the key|and key-update protocols that update keys using a known function: e.g., K, K + 1, K + 2, etc. Related-key attacks were also used against rotor machines: operators sometimes set rotors incorrectly. -
Known and Chosen Key Differential Distinguishers for Block Ciphers
Known and Chosen Key Differential Distinguishers for Block Ciphers Ivica Nikoli´c1?, Josef Pieprzyk2, Przemys law Soko lowski2;3, Ron Steinfeld2 1 University of Luxembourg, Luxembourg 2 Macquarie University, Australia 3 Adam Mickiewicz University, Poland [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. In this paper we investigate the differential properties of block ciphers in hash function modes of operation. First we show the impact of differential trails for block ciphers on collision attacks for various hash function constructions based on block ciphers. Further, we prove the lower bound for finding a pair that follows some truncated differential in case of a random permutation. Then we present open-key differential distinguishers for some well known round-reduced block ciphers. Keywords: Block cipher, differential attack, open-key distinguisher, Crypton, Hierocrypt, SAFER++, Square. 1 Introduction Block ciphers play an important role in symmetric cryptography providing the basic tool for encryp- tion. They are the oldest and most scrutinized cryptographic tool. Consequently, they are the most trusted cryptographic algorithms that are often used as the underlying tool to construct other cryp- tographic algorithms. One such application of block ciphers is for building compression functions for the hash functions. There are many constructions (also called hash function modes) for turning a block cipher into a compression function. Probably the most popular is the well-known Davies-Meyer mode. Preneel et al. in [27] have considered all possible modes that can be defined for a single application of n-bit block cipher in order to produce an n-bit compression function. -
Cryptanalysis of a Reduced Version of the Block Cipher E2
Cryptanalysis of a Reduced Version of the Block Cipher E2 Mitsuru Matsui and Toshio Tokita Information Technology R&D Center Mitsubishi Electric Corporation 5-1-1, Ofuna, Kamakura, Kanagawa, 247, Japan [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. This paper deals with truncated differential cryptanalysis of the 128-bit block cipher E2, which is an AES candidate designed and submitted by NTT. Our analysis is based on byte characteristics, where a difference of two bytes is simply encoded into one bit information “0” (the same) or “1” (not the same). Since E2 is a strongly byte-oriented algorithm, this bytewise treatment of characteristics greatly simplifies a description of its probabilistic behavior and noticeably enables us an analysis independent of the structure of its (unique) lookup table. As a result, we show a non-trivial seven round byte characteristic, which leads to a possible attack of E2 reduced to eight rounds without IT and FT by a chosen plaintext scenario. We also show that by a minor modification of the byte order of output of the round function — which does not reduce the complexity of the algorithm nor violates its design criteria at all —, a non-trivial nine round byte characteristic can be established, which results in a possible attack of the modified E2 reduced to ten rounds without IT and FT, and reduced to nine rounds with IT and FT. Our analysis does not have a serious impact on the full E2, since it has twelve rounds with IT and FT; however, our results show that the security level of the modified version against differential cryptanalysis is lower than the designers’ estimation. -

All generates and schedules all session-keys for the encryption and cryptographic algorithms are recommended to follow 128, 192 decryption process. The key space of conventional key schedule and 256-bits key lengths proposed by Advanced Encryption algorithm using the 2D hybrid cubes is not enough to resist Standard (AES) [9]. attacks and could easily be exploited. In this regard, this research proposed a new Key Schedule Algorithm based on Permutation plays an important role in the development of coordinate geometry of a Hybrid Cube (KSAHC) using cryptographic algorithms and it contains the finite set of Triangular Coordinate Extraction (TCE) technique and 3- numbers or symbols that are used to mix up a readable message Dimensional (3D) rotation of Hybrid Cube surface (HCs) for the into ciphertext as shown in transposition cipher [10]. The logic block cipher to achieve large key space that are more applicable behind any cryptographic algorithm is the number of possible to resist any attack on the secret key. -

Since August of 1998, the cryptographic community has had the opp ortunity to consider each of the fteen prop osed AES candidates. In this note, we take the opp ortunity to answer some of the questions and to resp ond to some of the issues that have b een raised ab out the suitabilityofRC6 as an AES candidate. 2 Encryption/Decryption Performance of RC6 Since the publication of RC6 a variety of researchers and implementors have examined RC6 and considered its p erformance in a wide range of environments. 2.1 32-bit architectures RC6 is one of the fastest AES prop osals on 32-bit architectures, particularly so on the NIST reference platform of a 200 MHz Pentium Pro. It is argued by many that the most reasonable way to assess the p erformance of an algorithm is to consider its sp eed in an assembly language implementation. We agree that this is the case. However it is also interesting to consider how the p erformance of RC6 compares when using di erent compilers. It is imp ortant to note that to take advantage of compiler-sp eci c optimizations the source co de provided to the compiler might need to b e changed. -
ASIC Design of High Speed Kasumi Block Cipher
International Journal of Engineering Research & Technology (IJERT) ISSN: 2278-0181 Vol. 3 Issue 2, February - 2014 ASIC design of High Speed Kasumi Block Cipher Dilip kumar1 Sunil shah2 1M. Tech scholar, Asst. Prof. Gyan ganga institute of technology and science Jabalpur Gyan ganga institute of technology and science Jabalpur M.P. M.P. Abstract - The nature of the information that flows throughout modern cellular communications networks has evolved noticeably since the early years of the first generation systems, when only voice sessions were possible. With today’s networks it is possible to transmit both voice and data, including e-mail, pictures and video. The importance of the security issues is higher in current cellular networks than in previous systems because users are provided with the mechanisms to accomplish very crucial operations like banking transactions and sharing of confidential business information, which require high levels of protection. Weaknesses in security architectures allow successful eavesdropping, message tampering and masquerading attacks to occur, with disastrous consequences for end users, companies and other organizations. The KASUMI block cipher lies at the core of both the f8 data confidentiality algorithm and the f9 data integrity algorithm for Universal Mobile Telecommunications System networks. The design goal is to increase the data conversion rate i.e. the throughput to a substantial value so that the design can be used as a cryptographic coprocessor in high speed network applications.

An Adaptive-Ciphertext Attack Against I XOR C Block Cipher Modes With
A A-C A “I ⊕ C” B C M W O Jon Passki Tom Ritter [email protected] [email protected] May 24, 2012 Abstract Certain block cipher confidentiality modes are susceptible to an adaptive chosen-ciphertext attack against the underlying format of the plaintext. When the application decrypts altered ciphertext and attempts to process the manipulated plaintext, it may disclose information about intermediate values resulting in an oracle. In this paper we describe how to recognize and exploit such an oracle to decrypt ciphertext and control the decryption to result in arbitrary plaintext. We also discuss ways to mitigate and remedy the issue. 1 I Quoting from [1]: Adaptive chosen-ciphertext attacks on cryptographic protocols allow an attacker to decrypt a cipher- text C, getting the plaintext M, by submitting a series of chosen-ciphertexts C0= 6 C to an oracle which returns information on the decryption. The ciphertexts can be adaptively chosen so that information on previous decryptions is available before the next chosen ciphertext is submitted. Adaptive chosen-ciphertext attacks against different confidentiality modes are not novel. The CBC confidentiality mode can suffer from a side channel attack against padding verification [2], popularized by [3]. A variant of the Cipher Feedback (CFB) confidentiality mode has been attacked in different encryption mail protocols by [4, 5, 1], and the padding schemes of asymmetric ciphers are another source of such attacks [6, 7]. In some form, they rely on the use of an oracle that leaks or communicates information back to attackers. We examine four different confidentiality modes encrypting plaintext that is separated by a delimiter, and the absence or inclusion of that delimiter generates an oracle by the application. -
