Stream cipher-Stream cipher-A stream cipher is a symmetric key cipher where plaintext digits are combined with a pseudorandom cipher digit stream (keystream). In a stream cipher, each plaintext digit is encrypted one at a time with the corresponding digit of the keystream, to give a digit of the ciphertext stream. Sinc... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Stream cipher-The pseudorandom keystream is typically generated serially from a random seed value using digital shift registers. The seed value serves as the cryptographic key for decrypting the ciphertext stream. Stream ciphers represent a different approach to symmetric encryption from block ciphers. Bl... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Loose inspiration from the one-time pad-Stream ciphers can be viewed as approximating the action of a proven unbreakable cipher, the one-time pad (OTP). A one-time pad uses a keystream of completely random digits. The keystream is combined with the plaintext digits one at a time to form the ciphertext. Th... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Loose inspiration from the one-time pad-A stream cipher makes use of a much smaller and more convenient key such as 128 bits. Based on this key, it generates a pseudorandom keystream which can be combined with the plaintext digits in a similar fashion to the one-time pad. However, this comes at a cost. Th... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Types-A stream cipher generates successive elements of the keystream based on an internal state. This state is updated in essentially two ways: if the state changes independently of the plaintext or ciphertext messages, the cipher is classified as a synchronous stream cipher. By contrast, self-synchronisi... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Types-Synchronous stream ciphers In a synchronous stream cipher a stream of pseudorandom digits is generated independently of the plaintext and ciphertext messages, and then combined with the plaintext (to encrypt) or the ciphertext (to decrypt). In the most common form, binary digits are used (bits), and... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Types-In a synchronous stream cipher, the sender and receiver must be exactly in step for decryption to be successful. If digits are added or removed from the message during transmission, synchronisation is lost. To restore synchronisation, various offsets can be tried systematically to obtain the correct... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Types-If, however, a digit is corrupted in transmission, rather than added or lost, only a single digit in the plaintext is affected and the error does not propagate to other parts of the message. This property is useful when the transmission error rate is high; however, it makes it less likely the error ... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Types-Self-synchronizing stream ciphers Another approach uses several of the previous N ciphertext digits to compute the keystream. Such schemes are known as self-synchronizing stream ciphers, asynchronous stream ciphers or ciphertext autokey (CTAK). The idea of self-synchronization was patented in 1946 a... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Types-An example of a self-synchronising stream cipher is a block cipher in cipher feedback (CFB) mode. | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Based on linear-feedback shift registers-Binary stream ciphers are often constructed using linear-feedback shift registers (LFSRs) because they can be easily implemented in hardware and can be readily analysed mathematically. The use of LFSRs on their own, however, is insufficient to provide good security... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Based on linear-feedback shift registers-An alternating step generator comprises three LFSRs, which we will call LFSR0, LFSR1 and LFSR2 for convenience. The output of one of the registers decides which of the other two is to be used; for instance, if LFSR2 outputs a 0, LFSR0 is clocked, and if it outputs ... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Based on linear-feedback shift registers-The stop-and-go generator (Beth and Piper, 1984) consists of two LFSRs. One LFSR is clocked if the output of a second is a 1, otherwise it repeats its previous output. This output is then (in some versions) combined with the output of a third LFSR clocked at a regu... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Based on linear-feedback shift registers-The shrinking generator takes a different approach. Two LFSRs are used, both clocked regularly. If the output of the first LFSR is 1, the output of the second LFSR becomes the output of the generator. If the first LFSR outputs 0, however, the output of the second i... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Based on linear-feedback shift registers-Filter generator Another approach to improving the security of an LFSR is to pass the entire state of a single LFSR into a non-linear filtering function. | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Other designs-Instead of a linear driving device, one may use a nonlinear update function. For example, Klimov and Shamir proposed triangular functions (T-functions) with a single cycle on n-bit words. | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Security-For a stream cipher to be secure, its keystream must have a large period, and it must be impossible to recover the cipher's key or internal state from the keystream. Cryptographers also demand that the keystream be free of even subtle biases that would let attackers distinguish a stream from rand... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Security-As with other attacks in cryptography, stream cipher attacks can be certificational so they are not necessarily practical ways to break the cipher but indicate that the cipher might have other weaknesses.
Securely using a secure synchronous stream cipher requires that one never reuse the same key... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Security-Short periods for stream ciphers have been a practical concern. For example, 64-bit block ciphers like DES can be used to generate a keystream in output feedback (OFB) mode. However, when not using full feedback, the resulting stream has a period of around 232 blocks on average; for many applicat... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Security-The elements of stream ciphers are often much simpler to understand than block ciphers and are thus less likely to hide any accidental or malicious weaknesses. | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Usage-Stream ciphers are often used for their speed and simplicity of implementation in hardware, and in applications where plaintext comes in quantities of unknowable length like a secure wireless connection. If a block cipher (not operating in a stream cipher mode) were to be used in this type of applic... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Stream cipher-Usage-Another advantage of stream ciphers in military cryptography is that the cipher stream can be generated in a separate box that is subject to strict security measures and fed to other devices such as a radio set, which will perform the XOR operation as part of their function.
