Several block cipher modes of operation have been proposed in the literature to protect sensitive information. However, different security analysis models have been presented for attacking them. The analysis indicated that most of the current modes of operation are vulnerable to several attacks such as known plaintext and chosen plaintext/cipher-text attacks. Therefore, this paper proposes a secure block cipher mode of operation to thwart such attacks. In general, the proposed mode combines one-time chain keys with each plaintext before its encryption. The challenge of the proposed mode is the generation of the chain keys. The proposed mode employs the logistic map together with a nonce to dynamically generate a unique set of chain keys for every plaintext. Utilizing the logistic map assures the dynamic behavior while employing the nonce guarantees the uniqueness of the chain keys even if the same message is encrypted again. In this way, the proposed mode called SPCBC can resist the most powerful attacks including the known plaintext and chosen plaintext/cipher-text attacks. In addition, the SPCBC mode improves encryption time performance through supporting parallelized implementation. Finally, the security analysis and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed mode is robust compared to the current modes of operation.

Data security and integrity is a critical issue in data transmission over wired/wireless links. A large amount of data is encrypted before transmission, by block cipher using mode of operation. RBF mode is a block cipher mode of operation which uses random characteristics. In this paper, we analyze the safety against known plaintext attack and chosen plaintext attack of RBF mode compared to the traditional modes. According to the analysis, RBF mode is known to be secure while the traditional modes are not secure against them.

This paper suggests a new cipher mode of operation which can recover cryptographic synchronization. First, we study the typical cipher modes of operation, especially focused on cryptographic synchronization problems. Then, we suggest a statistical cipher-feedback mode of operation. We define the error sources mathmatically and simulate propagation errors caused by a bit insertion or bit deletion. In the simulation, we compare the effects of changing the synchronization pattern length and feedback key length. After that, we analyze the simulation results with the calculated propagation errors. finally. we evaluate the performance of the statistical cipher-feedback mode of operation and recommand the implementation considerations.

지난호에는 IS 10116 : n비트 블럭 암호 알고리즘의 운영모드(Modes of operation for a 64-bit blick cipher algorithm)를 소개하였다. 이번 호에는 보다 n=64의 경우에 한정되어 제한적이기는 하지만 훨씬 먼저인 1987년에 만들어져 사용 되어오고 있으며 1992년 정보보안 국제총회에서 이미 많은 제품이 IS 8372를 근거로 만들어져 있기 때문이라는 이유로 다시 5년간 국제표준으로서 수명의 연장을 받은 IS 8372를 소개한다.

This paper describes an efficient implementation of KS(Korea Standards) block cipher algorithm ARIA. The ARIA crypto-processor supports three master key lengths of 128/192/256-bit and four modes of operation including ECB, CBC, OFB and CTR. A hardware sharing technique, which shares round function in encryption/decryption with key initialization, is employed to reduce hardware complexity. It reduces about 20% of gate counts when compared with straightforward implementation. The ARIA crypto-processor is verified by FPGA implementation, and synthesized with a $0.13-{\mu}m$ CMOS cell library. It has 46,100 gates on an area of $684-{\mu}m{\times}684-{\mu}m$ and the estimated throughput is about 1.28 Gbps at 200 MHz@1.2V.

PIPO lightweight block ciphers were announced in ICISC'20. In this paper, a single-block optimization implementation and parallel optimization implementation of PIPO lightweight block cipher ECB, CBC, and CTR operation modes are performed on a 32-bit RISC-V processor. A single block implementation proposes an efficient 8-bit unit of Rlayer function implementation on a 32-bit register. In a parallel implementation, internal alignment of registers for parallel implementation is performed, and a method for four different blocks to perform Rlayer function operations on one register is described. In addition, since it is difficult to apply the parallel implementation technique to the encryption process in the parallel implementation of the CBC operation mode, it is proposed to apply the parallel implementation technique in the decryption process. In parallel implementation of the CTR operation mode, an extended initialization vector is used to propose a register internal alignment omission technique. This paper shows that the parallel implementation technique is applicable to several block cipher operation modes. As a result, it is confirmed that the performance improvement is 1.7 times in a single-block implementation and 1.89 times in a parallel implementation compared to the performance of the existing research implementation that includes the key schedule process in the ECB operation mode.

SIMON, a lightweight block cipher developed by the US National Security Agency, is a family of block ciphers optimized for hardware implementation. It supports many kinds of standards to operate in various environments. The counter mode of operation is one of the operational modes. It provides to encrypt plaintext which is longer than the original size. The counter mode uses a constant(Nonce) and Counter value as an input value. Since Nonce is the identical for all blocks, so it always has same result when operates with other constant values. With this feature, it is possible to skip some instructions of round function by pre-computation. In general, the input value of SIMON is affected by the counter. However in an 8-bit environment, it is calculated in 8-bit units, so there is a part that can be pre-computed. In this paper, we focus the part that can be pre-calculated, and compare with previous works.

Camellia was jointly developed by Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation and Mitsubishi Electric Corporation in 2000. Camellia specifies the 128-bit message block size and 128-, 192-, and 256-bit key sizes. In this paper, a modified round operation block which unifies a register setting for key schedule and a conventional round operation block is proposed. 16 ROMs needed for key generation and round operation are implemented using only 4 dual-port ROMs. Due to the use of a message buffer, encryption/decryption can be executed without a waiting time immediately after KA and KB are calculated. The suggested block cipher Camellia algorithm is designed using Verilog-HDL, implemented on Virtex4 device and operates at 184.898MHz. The designed cryptographic core has a maximum throughput of 1.183Gbps in 128-bit key mode and that of 876.5Mbps in 192 and 256-bit key modes. The cryptographic core of this paper is applicable to security module of the areas such as smart card, internet banking, e-commerce and satellite broadcasting.

In this paper, we analyze the security of OFB encryption mode which is one of the basic modes of operation for the block cipher and the security of 3GPP f8 encryption mode used to provide the data confidentiality over a radio access link of W-CDMA IMT-2000. We provide the lower bound and the upper bound on security of both modes in random function model and random permutation model, respectively, by means of the left-or-right security notion, and prove the security of both modes using a pseudorandom function and a pseudorandom permutation, respectively.
