MRHS solver based on linear algebra and exhaustive search

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Cryptology, 2018
We show how to build a binary matrix from the MRHS representation of a symmetric-key cipher. The matrix contains the cipher represented as an equation system and can be used to assess a cipher’s resistance against algebraic attacks.

Provable Security of SP Networks with Partial Non-Linear Layers

open access: yesIACR Transactions on Symmetric Cryptology, 2021
Motivated by the recent trend towards low multiplicative complexity blockciphers (e.g., Zorro, CHES 2013; LowMC, EUROCRYPT 2015; HADES, EUROCRYPT 2020; MALICIOUS, CRYPTO 2020), we study their underlying structure partial SPNs, i.e., Substitution ...

Cryptanalysis of Low-Data Instances of Full LowMCv2

open access: yesIACR Transactions on Symmetric Cryptology, 2018
LowMC is a family of block ciphers designed for a low multiplicative complexity. The specification allows a large variety of instantiations, differing in block size, key size, number of S-boxes applied per round and allowed data complexity. The number of

Differential Attacks by Algebraic Solving on a Series of HE‐Friendly Stream Ciphers

open access: yesIET Information Security, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
In recent years, many symmetric encryption ciphers have been proposed for homomorphic encryption (HE) applications. Rasta and its variants Masta and Pasta have gradually become a self‐contained series of HE‐friendly stream ciphers. The feature of these ciphers is that a fresh affine layer is randomly generated for each encryption.

Differential Fault Attacks on Privacy Protocols Friendly Symmetric‐Key Primitives: RAIN and HERA

open access: yesIET Information Security, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
As the practical applications of fully homomorphic encryption (FHE), secure multi‐party computation (MPC) and zero‐knowledge (ZK) proof continue to increase, so does the need to design and analyze new symmetric‐key primitives that can adapt to these privacy‐preserving protocols.

High-Performance Hardware Implementation of MPCitH and Picnic3

open access: yesTransactions on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems
Picnic is a post-quantum digital signature, the security of which relies solely on symmetric-key primitives such as block ciphers and hash functions instead of number theoretic assumptions. One of the main concerns of Picnic is the large signature size.

Improving MPCitH with Preprocessing: Mask Is All You Need

open access: yesTransactions on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems
The MPC-in-the-head with preprocessing (MPCitH-PP) paradigm presents a novel approach for constructing post-quantum digital signatures like Picnic3.

Operator-Blind Secret Mediation for AI Agents: A Formal Model and FHE Construction for Credential Derivation on Untrusted Infrastructure

open access: yesMathematics
Artificial intelligence (AI) agents increasingly need credentials such as application programming interface (API) keys and Secure Shell (SSH) credentials, but placing those secrets in the agent process exposes them to prompt injection, tool misuse, and ...

New Attacks on LowMC Using Partial Sets in the Single-Data Setting

open access: yesIACR Communications in Cryptology
The LowMC family of block ciphers was proposed by Albrecht et al. in Eurocrypt 2015, specifically targeting adoption in FHE and MPC applications due to its low multiplicative complexity. The construction operates a 3-bit quadratic S-box as the sole non-linear transformation in the algorithm.

Efficient implementation of LowMC in HElib

open access: yes, 2018
LowMC is a symmetric block cipher designed for fully homomorphic encryption. This thesis focuses on Martin Albrecht’s implementation of the cipher in the FHE library HElib, and how his implementation can be improved when encrypting a single plaintext.
