A Differential Fault Attack on MICKEY
A Differential Fault Attack on MICKEY 2.0 Subhadeep Banik and Subhamoy Maitra Applied Statistics Unit, Indian Statistical Institute Kolkata, 203, B.T. Road, Kolkata-108. s.banik [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. In this paper we present a differential fault attack on the stream cipher MICKEY 2.0 which is in eStream's hardware portfolio. While fault attacks have already been reported against the other two eStream hardware candidates Trivium and Grain, no such analysis is known for MICKEY. Using the standard assumptions for fault attacks, we show that if the adversary can induce random single bit faults in the internal state of the cipher, then by injecting around 216:7 faults and performing 232:5 computations on an average, it is possible to recover the entire internal state of MICKEY at the beginning of the key-stream generation phase. We further consider the scenario where the fault may affect at most three neighbouring bits and in that case we require around 218:4 faults on an average. Keywords: eStream, Fault attacks, MICKEY 2.0, Stream Cipher. 1 Introduction The stream cipher MICKEY 2.0 [4] was designed by Steve Babbage and Matthew Dodd as a submission to the eStream project. The cipher has been selected as a part of eStream's final hardware portfolio. MICKEY is a synchronous, bit- oriented stream cipher designed for low hardware complexity and high speed. After a TMD tradeoff attack [16] against the initial version of MICKEY (ver- sion 1), the designers responded by tweaking the design by increasing the state size from 160 to 200 bits and altering the values of some control bit tap loca- tions.

An Archeology of Cryptography: Rewriting Plaintext, Encryption, and Ciphertext
An Archeology of Cryptography: Rewriting Plaintext, Encryption, and Ciphertext By Isaac Quinn DuPont A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Information University of Toronto © Copyright by Isaac Quinn DuPont 2017 ii An Archeology of Cryptography: Rewriting Plaintext, Encryption, and Ciphertext Isaac Quinn DuPont Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Information University of Toronto 2017 Abstract Tis dissertation is an archeological study of cryptography. It questions the validity of thinking about cryptography in familiar, instrumentalist terms, and instead reveals the ways that cryptography can been understood as writing, media, and computation. In this dissertation, I ofer a critique of the prevailing views of cryptography by tracing a number of long overlooked themes in its history, including the development of artifcial languages, machine translation, media, code, notation, silence, and order. Using an archeological method, I detail historical conditions of possibility and the technical a priori of cryptography. Te conditions of possibility are explored in three parts, where I rhetorically rewrite the conventional terms of art, namely, plaintext, encryption, and ciphertext. I argue that plaintext has historically been understood as kind of inscription or form of writing, and has been associated with the development of artifcial languages, and used to analyze and investigate the natural world. I argue that the technical a priori of plaintext, encryption, and ciphertext is constitutive of the syntactic iii and semantic properties detailed in Nelson Goodman’s theory of notation, as described in his Languages of Art. I argue that encryption (and its reverse, decryption) are deterministic modes of transcription, which have historically been thought of as the medium between plaintext and ciphertext.

In order to increase their resistance to attacks, we introduce a non-linear scrambler at the output of these generators. Non-linear feedback shift register plays the role of the scrambler. In addition, we propose Modified Alternating Step Generator with a non-linear scrambler (MASG1S ) built with non-linear feedback shift register and regularly or irregularly clocked linear feedback shift registers with non-linear filtering functions. UMCS1 Introduction Pseudorandom generators of a keystream composed of linear feedback shift registers (LFSR) are basic components of classical stream ciphers. An LFSR with properly selected feedback gives a sequence of maximal period and good statistical properties but has a low linear complexity. It is vulnerable to the Berlecamp-Massey [1] algorithm and can be easily reconstructed having a short output segment. Stop and go or alternating clocking of shift registers are two of the methods to increase linear complexity of the keystream. Other techniques introduce non-linearity to the feedback or to the output of the shift register.

The Probability Advantages of Two Linear Expressions in Symmetric Ciphers
The Probability Advantages of Two Linear Expressions in Symmetric Ciphers Haina Zhang ∗ Shaohui Wang † Xiaoyun Wang ‡ Abstract In this paper, we prove the probability advantages of two linear expressions which are summarized from the ABC stream cipher sub- mitted to ECRPYT Estream Project. Two linear expressions with probability advantages reflect the linear correlations among Modular Addition equations. Corresponding to each linear expression and its advantage, a large amount of weak keys are derived under which all the ABC main keys can be retrieved successively. The first linear expres- sion is a generic bit linear correlation between two Modular Addition equations. The second is a linear correlation of bit carries derived from three Modular Addition equations and the linear equation of LFSR in ABC. It is remarked that the second is found by Wu and Preneel, and has been used to find 296 weak keys. In the cryptanalysis of ABC, Wu and Preneel only utilized its estimated probability advantage which is concluded by experimental data, and they did not give its strict proof. Modular Addition and XOR operations are widely used in designing symmetric ciphers. We believe that these types of linear expressions with probability advantages not only can be used to analyze some other symmetric ciphers, but also are important criteria in designing secure symmetric ciphers.

On the Use of Continued Fractions for Stream Ciphers
On the use of continued fractions for stream ciphers Amadou Moctar Kane Département de Mathématiques et de Statistiques, Université Laval, Pavillon Alexandre-Vachon, 1045 av. de la Médecine, Québec G1V 0A6 Canada. [email protected] May 25, 2013 Abstract In this paper, we present a new approach to stream ciphers. This method draws its strength from public key algorithms such as RSA and the development in continued fractions of certain irrational numbers to produce a pseudo-random stream. Although the encryption scheme proposed in this paper is based on a hard mathematical problem, its use is fast. Keywords: continued fractions, cryptography, pseudo-random, symmetric-key encryption, stream cipher. 1 Introduction The one time pad is presently known as one of the simplest and fastest encryption methods. In binary data, applying a one time pad algorithm consists of combining the pad and the plain text with XOR. This requires the use of a key size equal to the size of the plain text, which unfortunately is very difﬁcult to implement. If a deterministic program is used to generate the keystream, then the system will be called stream cipher instead of one time pad. Stream ciphers use a great deal of pseudo- random generators such as the Linear Feedback Shift Registers (LFSR); although cryptographically weak [37], the LFSRs present some advantages like the fast time of execution. There are also generators based on Non-Linear transitions, examples included the Non-Linear Feedback Shift Register NLFSR and the Feedback Shift with Carry Register FCSR. Such generators appear to be more secure than those based on LFSR.

Loads of Codes – Cryptography Activities for the Classroom
Loads of Codes – Cryptography Activities for the Classroom Paul Kelley Anoka High School Anoka, Minnesota In the next 90 minutes, we’ll look at cryptosystems: Caesar cipher St. Cyr cipher Tie-ins with algebra Frequency distribution Vigenere cipher Cryptosystem – an algorithm (or series of algorithms) needed to implement encryption and decryption. For our purposes, the words encrypt and encipher will be used interchangeably, as will decrypt and decipher. The idea behind all this is that you want some message to get somewhere in a secure fashion, without being intercepted by “the bad guys.” Code – a substitution at the level of words or phrases Cipher – a substitution at the level of letters or symbols However, I think “Loads of Codes” sounds much cooler than “Loads of Ciphers.” Blackmail = King = Today = Capture = Prince = Tonight = Protect = Minister = Tomorrow = Capture King Tomorrow Plaintext: the letter before encryption Ciphertext: the letter after encryption Rail Fence Cipher – an example of a “transposition cipher,” one which doesn’t change any letters when enciphered. Example: Encipher “DO NOT DELAY IN ESCAPING,” using a rail fence cipher. You would send: DNTEAIECPN OODLYNSAIG Null cipher – not the entire message is meaningful.

CS 4005-705-01 Cryptography I Prof. Alan Kaminsky Graduate Project: Team: “The Number Crunchers” Members: Sharif Hdairis Andrew Hoffman Nelson Powell Introduction Cryptography has progressed significantly from the days of substitution and affine ciphers, to the modern block and stream ciphers based on high order mathematics. This course provides an introduction to the fundamentals of cryptography as it applies to the field of security via the examination of both cryptography and cryptanalysis. This project focuses an empirical investigation on the statistical attributes of stream ciphers, specifically using the published Rabbit Stream Cipher with respect to the randomness of the key stream. The Rabbit Cipher algorithm is a stream cipher utilizing a 128-bit secret key with a 64- bit Initialization Vector (IV) [1][2]. The Rabbit Cipher efficiently encrypts 128-bits per iteration of the algorithm in a synchronous manner to provide an effective ciphered bit stream. The cipher was implemented using the Java language with the intent to utilize the Parallel Java Library [3] as provided by Dr. Alan Kaminsky. Using Object Oriented Design (OOD), the components of the cipher were abstracted in an effort to maximize the utility of fundamental components as well as provide for a possible context based encryption environment. The fundamental components were validated against test sets[2][4] to ensure functional compliance. This statistical analysis test suite TestU01 was used to determine the probability of randomness in cipher’s key stream. Since the Rabbit cipher uses four iterations to mix the key followed by four iterations to mix the IV, the analysis examines the effects on randomness within the keystream with respect to the number of initialization rounds.

With low-power computation abilities, these devices consume less power, thus reducing costs. New directions in ultra-lightweight cryptosystem design include optimizing lightweight cryptosystems to work with a low number of gate equivalents (GEs); without aﬀecting security, these designs consume less power via scaled-down versions of the Mutual Irregular Clocking KEYstream generator—version 2-(MICKEY 2.0) cipher. This study aims to obtain a scaled-down version of the MICKEY 2.0 cipher by modifying its internal state design via reducing shift registers and modifying the controlling bit positions to assure the ciphers’ pseudo-randomness. We measured these changes using the National Institutes of Standards and Testing (NIST) test suites, investigating the speed and power consumption of the proposed scaled-down version named MICKEY 2.0.85.
