Invertible transformations over n-bit words are essential ingredients in many cryptographic constructions. Such invertible transformations are usually represented as a composition of simpler operations such as linear functions, S-P networks, Feistel structures and T-functions. Among them T-functions are probably invertible transformations and are very useful in stream ciphers. In this paper we will characterize a secure trinomial on ${\mathbb{Z}}_{2^n}$ which generates an n-bit word sequence without consecutive elements of period $2^n$.

본 논문에서는 스트림 암호 알고리즘과 블록 암호 알고리즘과 같은 비밀키 암호 시스템의 통계적 특성을 측정하기 위하여 사용된 여러 가지 randomness 테스트 방법들을 구현하여 그 성능을 randomness test의 power측면에서 서로 비교하였다. 여기서, power란 randomness test가 nonrandom한 비트 스트림을 얼마나 정확하게 검정할 수 있는 가를 나타내는 적도이다. 그리고, 스트림 암호 알고리즘과 블록 암호 알고리즘의 통계적 특성을 측정하기 위해 가장 효율적이라고 생각되는 테스트 방법들을 찾아 이 방법들을 사용할 것을 제안한다. 끝으로 제안된 방법들을 이용하여, DES, AES후보 알고리즘, SEED의 통계적 특성을 분석하였다.

In this paper we propose a new network called Dynamic network for symmetric block ciphers. Dynamic cipher has the property that the key-size, the number of round, and the plaintext-size are scalable simultaneously We present the method for designing secure Dynamic cipher against meet-in-the-middle attack and linear cryptanalysis. Also, we show that the differential cryptanalysis to Dynamic cipher is hard.

In the block cipher, DPA-resistant masking methods make an appropriation of extremely high cost for the non-linear part. Block ciphers like AES and ARIA use the inversion operation as this non-linear part. This make various countermeasures be proposed for reducing the cost of masking inversion. In this paper, we propose the efficient masking inverter by rearranging the masking inversion operation over the composite field and finding duplicated multiplications.

With the development of the Internet, the popularization of internet has become the new trend and enormously changed the way of human communication. There is a strong need for security. The following research will provide the definition and purpose of IoT and examine its security concerns, In this paper, we surveyed at energy consumption of lightweight block ciphers implemented in reconfigurable devices, and we analyze d the effects that round unrolling might have on the energy consumed during the encryption.

In this paper we study the structures and properties of a single cycle T-finction, whose theory has been lately proposed by Klimov and Shamir. Any cryptographic system based on T-functions may be insecure. Some of the TSC-series stream ciphers have been successfully attacked by some attacks. So it is important to analyze every aspect of a single cycle T-function. We study some properties on a single cycle T-function and we show some examples are single cycle T-functions by these properties, whose proof is easier than existing methods.

Ransomware uses symmetric-key algorithm such as a block cipher to encrypt users' files illegally. If we find the traces of a block cipher algorithm in a certain program in advance, the ransomware will be detected in increased rate. The inclusion of a block cipher can consider the encryption function will be enabled potentially. This paper proposes a way to determine whether a particular program contains a block cipher. We have studied the implementation characteristics of various block ciphers, as well as the AES used by ransomware. Based on those characteristics, we are able to find what kind of block ciphers have been contained in a particular program. The methods proposed in this paper will be able to detect ransomware with high probability by complementing the previous detection methods.

Cryptographic algorithm testing is performed to ensure that a specific algorithm implementation is implemented correctly and functions correctly. CMVP(Cryptographic Module Validation Program) of NIST in US is the well-known testing system that validates cryptographic modules to Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS). There is no FIPS-approved stream cipher, and CMVP doesn't involve its validation testing procedure. In this paper we provide validation systems for three currently used light-weight stream ciphers: Bluetooth encryption algorithm E0, 3GPP encryption algorithm A5/3, and RC4 used for WEP and SSL/TLS Protocols. Moreover we describe our validation tools implemented by JAVA programing.

With the growing trend of pervasive computing, (the idea that technology is moving beyond personal computers to everyday devices) there is a growing demand for lightweight ciphers to safeguard data in a network that is always available. For all block cipher applications, the AES is the preferred choice. However, devices used in pervasive computing have extremely constraint environment and as such the AES will not be suitable. In this paper we design and implement a new lightweight compact block cipher that takes advantage of both S-P network and the Feistel structure. The cipher uses the S-box of PRESENT algorithm and a key dependent one stage omega permutation network is used as the cipher's P-box. The cipher is implemented on iNEXT-V6 board equipped with virtex-6 FPGA. The design synthesized to 196 slices at 337 MHz maximum clock frequency.

The existing block encryption algorithms have been designed for the encryption key value to be unchanged and applied to the round functions of each block. and enciphered. Therefore, it has such a weak point that the plaintext or encryption key could be easily exposed by differential cryptanalysis or linear cryptanalysis, both are the most powerful methods for decoding block encryption of a round repeating structure. Dynamic cipher has the property that the key-size, the number of round, and the plaintext-size are scalable simultaneously. Dynamic network is the unique network satisfying these characteristics among the networks for symmetric block ciphers. We analyze the strength of Dynamic network for meet-in-the-middle attack, linear cryptanalysis, and differential cryptanalysis. Also, In this paper we propose a new network called Dynamic network for symmetric block ciphers.
