“…The eSTREAM [65] Portfolio (revision 1 in September 2008) contains the stream cipher HC-128 [224] in Profile 1 (SW). Several research works exist on the cryptanalysis of HC-128 [126,143,148,178,202], however none of them pose a security threat to the cipher. The HC-128 cipher description in briefly sketched from [224].…”

As I write the acknowledgement of my dissertation, I cant help recollecting my experience of working as a research assistant at Institute for Communication Technologies and Embedded Systems (ICE) and how much it taught me as a person and as a researcher. I feel honored to have undertaken this journey. This work would not have been possible without my advisor Prof. Anupam Chattopadhyay and I would like to express my sincere gratitude for his patience, support, motivation, valuable suggestions and technical guidance. My thesis co-supervisor Prof. Ascheid deserves a special thanks for his valuable feedback for my work. My list of gratitude extends to include Goutam Paul, Subhamoy Maitra and Sourav Sen Gupta who ignited several initial ideas captured in this work.I am grateful to the rest of my thesis committee members who read over my thesis draft and made valuable suggestions for its improvement. This includes Prof. Heinen, who chaired my thesis defense oral exam and Prof. Mähönen who was the observer. Their insightful comments and encouragement incensed me to widen and improve my research from various perspectives.Amongst my colleagues at ICE I would like to show my deep appreciation to Zheng Wang and Zoltán Rákossy for their undue assistance and support. I would like to thank my students

Pervasive computing constitutes a growing trend, aiming to embed smart devices into everyday objects. The limited resources of these devices and the ever‐present need for lower production costs, lead to the research and development of lightweight cryptographic mechanisms. Block ciphers, the main symmetric key cryptosystems, perform well in this field. Nevertheless, stream ciphers are also relevant in ubiquitous computing applications, as they can be used to secure the communication in applications where the plaintext length is either unknown or continuous, like network streams. This paper provides the latest survey of stream ciphers for embedded systems. Lightweight implementations of stream ciphers in embedded hardware and software are examined as well as relevant authenticated encryption schemes. Their speed and simplicity enable compact and low‐power implementations, allow them to excel in applications pertaining to resource‐constrained devices. The outcomes of the International Organization for Standardization/International Electrotechnical Commission 29192‐3 standard and the cryptographic competitions eSTREAM and Competition for Authenticated Encryption: Security, Applicability, and Robustness are summarized along with the latest results in the field. However, cryptanalysis has proven many of these schemes are actually insecure. From the 31 designs that are examined, only six of them have been found to be secure by independent cryptanalysis. A constrained benchmark analysis is performed on low‐cost embedded hardware and software platforms. The most appropriate and secure solutions are then mapped in different types of applications.

Abstract. FOX is a family of symmetric block ciphers from MediaCrypt AG that helps to secure digital media, communications, and storage. The high-level structure of FOX is the so-called (extended) Lai-Massey scheme. This paper presents a detailed fault analysis of the block cipher FOX64, the 64-bit version of FOX, based on a differential property of tworound Lai-Massey scheme in a fault model. Previous fault attack on FOX64 shows that each round-key (resp. whole round-keys) could be recovered through 11.45 (resp. 183.20) faults on average. Our proposed fault attack, however, can deduce any round-key (except the first one) through 4.25 faults on average (4 in the best case), and retrieve the whole round-keys through 43.31 faults on average (38 in the best case). This implies that the number of needed faults in the fault attack on FOX64 can be significantly reduced. Furthermore, the technique introduced in this paper can be extended to other series of the block cipher family FOX.
