In this paper, we focus on the differential cryptanalysis dedicated to a particular class of
cryptographic algorithms, namely ARX ciphers. We propose a new algorithm inspired by the …

In this paper, we focus on differential cryptanalysis of a lightweight ARX cipher. These
ciphers use three simple arithmetic operations, namely, modular addition, bitwise rotation …

Differential cryptanalysis is one of the most critical analysis methods to evaluate the security
strength of cryptographic algorithms. This paper first applies the genetic algorithm to search …

This paper presents the differential cryptanalysis of two lightweight ciphers, namely, SIMON
and SIMECK. The first cipher SIMON was presented by the US National Security Agency in …

We propose the adaptation of Nested Monte-Carlo Search algorithm for finding differential
trails in the class of ARX ciphers. The practical application of the algorithm is demonstrated …

The differential-linear attack is one of the most effective attacks against ARX ciphers.
However, two technical problems are preventing it from being more effective and having …

We propose a tool for automatic search for differential trails in ARX ciphers. By introducing
the concept of a partial difference distribution table (pDDT) we extend Matsui's algorithm …

In this paper, we focus on the automatic differential cryptanalysis of ARX block ciphers with
respect to XOR-difference, and develop Mouha et al.'s framework for finding differential …

We propose the first adaptation of Matsui's algorithm for finding the best differential and
linear trails to the class of ARX ciphers. It is based on a branch-and-bound search strategy …
