Zero-correlation linear cryptanalysis is an important method for analyzing the security of block ciphers. But there are few works on zero-correlation linear attacks combined with a related-key setting ...

The arena of creating secure environments in the hardware and software industries is somewhat shrouded in mystery and misunderstanding. Certainly, some types of ciphers are relatively straightforward ...

We use ciphers to keep secrets secret. To crack ciphers, you need math, psychology and a slab of luck. It's not easy. Many great ciphers remain unsolved, as cryptologist Craig P. Bauer tells DW's ...
