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.

Preneel, Govaerts, and Vandewalle considered the 64 basic ways to construct a collision resistant hash function from a block cipher. They regarded 12 of these 64 schemes as secure, though no proofs or formal claims were given. Black, Rogaway, and Shrimpton presented a more proof-centric look at the schemes from PGV. They proved that, in the black box model of block cipher, 12 of 64 compression functions are CRHFs and 20 of 64 extended hash functions are CRHFs. In this paper, we present 64 schemes of block-cipher-based universal one way hash functions using the main idea of PGV and analyze these schemes in the black box model. We will show that 30 of 64 compression function families UOWHF and 42 of 64 extended hash function families are UOWHF. One of the important results is that, in this black box model, we don't need the mask keys for the security of UOWHF in contrast with the results in general security model of UOWHF. Our results also support the assertion that building an efficient and secure UOWHF is easier than building an efficient and secure CRHF.

The notion of pseudorandomness is the theoretical foundation on which to consider the soundness of a basic structure used in some block ciphers. We examine the pseudorandomness of the block cipher KASUMI, which will be used in the next-generation cellular phones. First, we prove that the four-round unbalanced MISTY-type transformation is pseudorandom in order to illustrate the pseudorandomness of the inside round function FI of KASUMI under an adaptive distinguisher model. Second, we show that the three-round KASUMI-like structure is not pseudorandom but the four-round KASUMI-like structure is pseudorandom under a non-adaptive distinguisher model.

ARIA is an involutory SPN block cipher. Its block size is 128-bit and the master key sizes are 128/192/256-bit, respectively. Accordingly, they are called ARIA-128/192/256. As we all know, ARIA is a Korean Standard block cipher nowadays. This paper focuses on the security of ARIA against impossible differential attack. We firstly construct a new 4-round impossible differential of ARIA. Furthermore, based on this impossible differential, a new 7-round impossible differential attack on ARIA-256 is proposed in our paper. This attack needs 2¹¹⁸ chosen plaintexts and 2²¹⁰ 7-round encryptions. Comparing with the previous best result, we improve both the data complexity and time complexity. To our knowledge, it is the best impossible differential attack on ARIA-256 so far.

Impossible Differential Cryptanalysis (IDC) uses impossible differentials to discard wrong subkeys for the first or the last several rounds of block ciphers. Thus, the security of a block cipher against IDC can be evaluated by impossible differentials. This paper studies impossible differentials for Rijndael-like and 3D-like ciphers, we introduce methods to find 4-round impossible differentials of Rijndael-like ciphers and 6-round impossible differentials of 3D-like ciphers. Using our methods, various new impossible differentials of Rijndael and 3D could be searched out.

We propose a novel optical encryption scheme for cipher-feedback-block (CFB) mode, capable of encrypting two-dimensional (2D) page data with the use of two-step phase-shifting digital interferometry utilizing orthogonal polarization, in which the CFB algorithm is modified into an optical method to enhance security. The encryption is performed in the Fourier domain to record interferograms on charge-coupled devices (CCD)s with 256 quantized gray levels. A page of plaintext is encrypted into digital interferograms of ciphertexts, which are transmitted over a digital information network and then can be decrypted by digital computation according to the given CFB algorithm. The encryption key used in the decryption procedure and the plaintext are reconstructed by dual phase-shifting interferometry, providing high security in the cryptosystem. Also, each plaintext is sequentially encrypted using different encryption keys. The random-phase mask attached to the plaintext provides resistance against possible attacks. The feasibility and reliability of the proposed CFB method are verified and analyzed with numerical simulations.

White-box cryptography is an implementation technique in order to protect secret keys of cryptographic algorithms in the white-box attack model, which is the setting that an adversary has full access to the implementation of the cryptographic algorithm and full control over their execution. This concept was introduced in 2002 by Chow et al., and since then, there have been many proposals for secure implementations. While there have been many approaches to construct a secure white-box implementation for the ciphers with SPN structures, there was no notable result about the white-box implementation for the block ciphers with Feistel structure after white-box DES implementation was broken. In this paper, we propose a secure white-box implementation for a block cipher SEED with Feistel structure, which can prevent the previous known attacks for white-box implementations. Our proposal is simple and practical: it is performed by only 3,376 table lookups during each execution and the total size of tables is 762.5 KB.

In symmetric cryptography, a cryptographically secure Substitution-Box (S-Box) is a key component of a block cipher. S-Box adds a confusion layer in block ciphers that provide resistance against well-known attacks. The generation of a cryptographically secure S-Box depends upon its generation mechanism. In this paper, we propose a novel framework for the construction of cryptographically secure S-Boxes. This framework uses a combination of linear fractional transformation and permutation functions. S-Boxes security is analyzed against well-known security criteria that include nonlinearity, bijectiveness, strict avalanche and bits independence criteria, linear and differential approximation probability. The S-Boxes can be used in the encryption of any grayscale digital images. The encrypted images are analyzed against well-known image analysis criteria that include pixel changing rates, correlation, entropy, and average change of intensity. The analysis of the encrypted image shows that our image encryption scheme is secure.

A chaos cipher system that focuses on the stream cipher system has a demerit that the longer the text is, the slower the speed of the encryption and description and the transmission and reception. On this study, we designed the cipher web mail system showing much better capabilities than the existing web mail system as the text is longer. In the embodiment of the cipher web mail system, we developed the key stream, the encryption and description of the text and the inside and outside mail viewer and so on. After the efficiency test, it was valued high in the respect of the speed of the encryption and description and the transmission and reception. And it made up for the defect of the stream cipher system. We expect that we can use it through the persistent applied study in the server system security, the file security, the security of the internet information, the protection of the e-commerce system information and other fields based on the cipher technique as the wide use cipher system that can replace the block cipher system.

This paper describes a design of cryptographic processor that implements the AES(Advanced Encryption Standard) block cipher algorithm "Rijndael". To achieve high throughput rate, a sub-pipeline stage is inserted into the round transformation block, resulting that the second half of current round function and the first half of next round function are being simultaneously operated. For area-efficient and low-power implementation, the round block is designed to share the hardware resources in encryption and decryption. An efficient scheme for on-the-fly key scheduling, which supports the three master-key lengths of 128-b/192-b/256-b, is devised to generate round keys in the first sub-pipeline stage of each round processing. The cryptoprocessor designed in Verilog-HDL was verified using Xilinx FPGA board and test system. The core synthesized using 0.35-${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS cell library consists of about 25,000 gates. Simulation results show that it has a throughput of about 520-Mbits/sec with 220-MHz clock frequency at 2.5-V supply.-V supply.
