In Digital Right Management, symmetric cipher is used for content encryption to reduce encryption cost, AES, advanced encryption standard is usually used to multimedia encryption under desktop environment because of its reasonable security level and computation cost. But mobile handheld device often uses slow speed processor and operates under battery-powered environment. Therefore it requires low computation cost and low energy consumption. This paper proposes new stream cipher scheme which combines pseudo random number generator(PRNG) and dynamically generated permutations. Proposed scheme activates PRNG and generates original key streams. Then it generates extended key streams by applying permutation to original sequence. These extended key streams are XORed with plaintext and generate ciphertext. Proposed scheme reduces the usage of PRNG. Therefore this scheme is fast and consumes less energy in comparison with normal stream cipher. Especially, this scheme shows great speed up (almost 2 times) than normal stream cipher scheme in random access.

We propose a fast stream cipher ASC16 for software implementation. ASC16 has a very simple structure with ASR(Arithmetic Shift Register), NLF(Non-Linear Filter), and NLB(Non-Linear Block), and is executed by a word. It is a stream cipher for wireless communication, which makes 32bit key streams using s-box with non-linear transformation. The processed result is almost same as SSC2, 32bit output stream cipher, developed by Zhang, Carroll, and Chan. The period is longer than SSC2, and it causes the difficulty of Correlation attack and raises security very much. The proposed ASC16 is efficiently used in the process of a fast cipher in the limited environment such as wireless communication.

The synchronous stream cipher has the advantage that one bit error in the ciphertext only affects the corresponding bit in the plaintext, but it requires the perfect synchronization between encryptor and decryptor. For synchronization, a periodic resynchronization has been used in many applications. In this paper, we propose the periodic resynchronization scheme for radio secure communication and evaluate the performances according to the period of sync pattern and session key under radio channel environment having 10-2~ 10-6 BER.

A Boolean function generates a binary sequence which is frequently used in a stream cipher. There are number of critical concepts which a Boolean function, as a key stream generator in a stream cipher, satisfies. These are nonlinearity, correlation immunity, balancedness, SAC(strictly avalanche criterion), PC(propagation criterion) and so on. In this paper, we present the algorithms for generating random nonlinear combining functions satisfying given correlation immune order and nonlinearity. These constructions can be applied for designing the key stream generators. We use Microsoft Visual C++6.0 for our program.

In this paper, we presented a ciphering method whose target data is any kind of digital bit-stream. It uses a chaotic system as the main encrypting tool, MISR (Multi-Input Signature Register), and shift-and-rotation function, all of which are exclusive-ORed with the plaintext. Also, it incorporates a cipher text feedback mode such that part of the previously ciphered data is fed back to encrypt the current data. The encryption block size and the amount of feedback data are different at each ciphering operation. Experimental results with the image/video date showed that this method has enough speed and encryption effect with negligible latency time. Thus, we are expecting it to have various application areas that need high speed stream ciphering with high security level.

Nowadays, the development of wireless communications provides a convenience for many people. On the other hand, the openness of wireless communications poses serious security threats and the security of wireless communications is necessary to support the secure communication channel. The common security method on wireless is the stream cipher that generates the pseudorandom number. In this paper, we propose the usage of the nonlinear function S-box and the mechanism according to it in stream cipher as the study to securely protect data transferred on wireless communications. Besides, it goes abreast a study on S-box with the best random characteristic among the used S-boxes on wireless communications. By means of test, we investigate the most appropriate S-box of DES on wireless communications environment and prove the efficiency of the proposed model by comparing and analysis of the randomness of the based stream cipher and the proposed model.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are an emerging technology and offers economically viable monitoring solution to many challenging applications. However, deploying new technology in hostile environment, without considering security in mind has often proved to be unreasonably unsecured. Apparently, security techniques face many critical challenges in WSNs like data security and secrecy due to its hostile deployment nature. In order to resolve security in WSNs, we propose a novel and efficient secure framework called TriSec: a secure data framework for wireless sensor networks to attain high level of security. TriSec provides data confidentiality, authentication and data integrity to sensor networks. TriSec supports node-to-node encryption using PingPong-128 stream cipher based-privacy. A new PingPong-MAC (PP-MAC) is incorporated with PingPong stream cipher to make TriSec framework more secure. PingPong-128 is fast keystream generation and it is very suitable for sensor network environment. We have implemented the proposed scheme on wireless sensor platform and our result shows their feasibility.

In this paper, we propose some parallel structures of the word-based nonlinear combine functions in word-based stream cipher, high-speed versions of general (bit-based) nonlinear combine functions. Especially, we propose the high-speed structures of popular three kinds in word-based nonlinear combiners using by PS-WFSR (Parallel-Shifting or Parallel-Structured Word-based FSR): m-parallel word-based nonlinear combiner without memory, m-parallel word-based nonlinear combiner with memories, and m-parallel word-based nonlinear filter function. Finally, we analyze its cryptographic security and performance.

In this paper, a synchronized stream encryption system for secure link layer communication in a radio channel is designed. Interleaving scheme which is used to enhance the transmission performance over a fading channel is applied to the encrypted information. A designed synchronous scream cipher system consists of a keystream generator, a synchronization pattern generator and a session key generator. The structure of a synchronous stream cipher system with periodic synchronization is composed of the encrypted information which consists of a synchronization pattern, an error correcting coded session key, an encrypted data in a period of synchronization. In this paper, interleaving scheme using dynamic allocation a1gorithm(DAA) is applied the encrypted information. The BER of the DAA has been slightly higher than that of the SAA(static allocation algorithm).
