Cryptographic Boolean Functions and Applications, Second Edition is designed to be a
comprehensive reference for the use of Boolean functions in modern cryptography. While …

The cube attack is a powerful cryptanalytic technique and is especially powerful against
stream ciphers. Since we need to analyze the complicated structure of a stream cipher in the …

At SODA 2017 Lokshtanov et al. presented the first worst-case algorithms with exponential
speedup over exhaustive search for solving polynomial equation systems of degree d in n …

At CRYPTO 2017 and IEEE Transactions on Computers in 2018, Todo et al. proposed the
division property based cube attack method making it possible to launch cube attacks with …

The security analysis of Keccak, the winner of SHA-3, has attracted considerable interest.
Recently, some attention has been paid to the analysis of keyed modes of Keccak sponge …

We present a detailed security analysis of the CAESAR candidate Ascon. Amongst others,
cube-like, differential and linear cryptanalysis are used to evaluate the security of Ascon. Our …

Side-channel attacks and in particular differential power analysis (DPA) attacks pose a
serious threat to cryptographic implementations. One approach to counteract such attacks …

In this paper, we revisit the difference enumeration technique for LowMC and develop new
algebraic techniques to achieve efficient key-recovery attacks. In the original difference …

This paper evaluates the secure level of authenticated encryption Ascon against cube-like
method. Ascon submitted by Dobraunig et al. is one of 16 survivors of the 3rd round …

In this paper, we analyze the security of round-reduced versions of the Keccak hash function
family. Based on the work pioneered by Aumasson and Meier, and Dinur et al., we formalize …
