Area, Delay, and Power Characteristics of Standard-Cell Implementations of the AES S-Box

Cryptographic substitution boxes (S-boxes) are an integral part of modern block ciphers like the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). There exists a rich literature devoted to the efficient implementation of cryptographic S-boxes, wherein hardware designs for FPGAs and standard cells received particular attention. In this paper we present a comprehensive study of different standard-cell implementations of the AES S-box with respect to timing (i.e. critical path), silicon area, power consumption, and combinations of these cost metrics. We examine implementations which exploit the mathematical properties of the AES S-box, constructions based on hardware look-up tables, and dedicated low-power solutions. Our results show that the timing, area, and power properties of the different S-box realizations can vary by up to almost an order of magnitude. In terms of area and area-delay product, the best choice are implementations which calculate the S-box output. On the other hand, the hardware look-up solutions are characterized by the shortest critical path. The dedicated low-power implementations do not only reduce power consumption by a large degree, but they also show good timing properties and offer the best power-delay and power-area product, respectively.     

Approved algorithmic security enhancement of stream cipher for advanced mobile communications

ABSTRACT

Confidentiality and integrity processes are based on SNOW and ZUC algorithms. These standardized algorithms are designed by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) for advanced mobile communication systems. Each algorithm has two S-boxes in its nonlinear layer structure. This paper proposes three different approaches to enhance the security level of both algorithms. The first approach aims to select the best combination of two S-boxes in the nonlinear part of each algorithm. Results showed that the best randomness properties are achieved by combining the Feistel structure (S1-box) and Rijndael (S2-box) in the SNOW algorithm and New Rijndael (S1-box) and Rijndael (S2-box) in the ZUC algorithm. The second approach aims to increase the nonlinearity and complexity of these algorithms by selecting a strong S-box to cascade the best-existing two S-boxes for both algorithms. The third approach is an extension of the former, based on a dynamic reform of such S-boxes as a function of the “Authentication Token” to increase the computational complexity of the upgraded two algorithms. These proposed upgrades are simulated by C language and tested successfully for their statistical properties using the standard NIST SP 800-22 test suite.     

Cryptanalysis of nonlinear confusion component based encryption algorithm

Recently many substitution box based encryption algorithms ensuring privacy have been proposed. Many, chaotic map based S-boxes have been generated posing high nonlinearity and strong cryptographic properties. Encryption schemes depending on the substitution box (S-box) only are weak and easily breakable with the help of chosen plaintext and ciphertext attacks. In this work, we have completely cryptanalyzed S-box based encryption scheme successfully by two types of attacks. Cryptanalysis in both types of attacks is performed by only one selected image. Moreover, we have suggested some improvements in the algorithm to defeat attacks.     

带陷门分组密码算法的设计与分析

带陷门的密码算法包含了陷门信息,知道陷门信息可以较容易地获得密码算法的密钥进而解密密文得到明文,对于不知道陷门信息的攻击者则无法有效获得密钥,并且要找到陷门信息在计算上也是很困难的。基于对称密码算法中带陷门信息的混淆部件设计了一种带陷门的分组密码算法,并对该算法进行了安全性分析,证明了在假设陷门信息保密(不公开)的情况下该类算法能够抵抗线性密码分析等攻击方法。基于这样的分组密码算法,讨论了构造公钥加密算法的思路。
