Modeling Linear and Non-linear Layers: An MILP Approach Towards Finding Differential and Impossible Differential Propagations

arXiv:2405.00441v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Symmetric key cryptography stands as a fundamental cornerstone in ensuring security within contemporary electronic communication frameworks. The cryptanalysis of classical symmetric key ciphers involves traditional methods and techniques aimed at breaking or analyzing these cryptographic systems. In the evaluation of new ciphers, the resistance against linear and differential cryptanalysis is commonly a key design criterion. The wide trail design technique for block ciphers facilitates the demonstration of security against linear and differential cryptanalysis. Assessing the …
