This paper presents a block cipher that is optimized with respect to latency when
implemented in hardware. Such ciphers are desirable for many future pervasive applications …

The design of secure yet efficiently implementable cryptographic algorithms is a
fundamental problem of cryptography. Lately, lightweight cryptography--optimizing the …

This textbook serves as an introduction to the subject of embedded systems design, with
emphasis on integration of custom hardware components with software. The key problem …

The processing time required by a cryptographic primitive implemented in hardware is an
important metric for its performance but it has not received much attention in recent …

A method for constructing n-stage Galois NLFSRs with period 2 n-1 from n-stage maximum
length LFSRs is presented. Nonlinearity is introduced into state cycles by adding a nonlinear …

Stream cipher ZUC is the core component in the 3GPP confidentiality and integrity
algorithms 128-EEA3 and 128-EIA3. In this paper, we present the details of our differential …

Cube attacks were introduced in Dinur and Shamir (2009) as a cryptanalytic technique that
requires only black box access to the underlying cryptosystem. The attack exploits the …

Abstract Linear Feedback Shift Registers (LFSRs) are the main building block of many
classical stream ciphers; however due to their inherent linearity, most of the LFSR-based …

This paper is concerned with an extensive form of stream cipher Trivium. Trivium is extended
to a scalable form by the coupling connection of Trivium-like shift registers. The …
