Add a tag that seems relevent to me.

While the tag was indeed wrong, the change in the body of the question did not preserve the meaning of the question.

provable security is something else.
May 19, 2022 at 18:46 comment added kelalaka Related How secure is a 128 bit ideal substitution cipher and Is there a theoretical maximum useful keysize given the block-size? and maybe some more.
May 19, 2022 at 18:40 comment added kelalaka A block cipher is a family of permutations where each key selects one permutation ( you already see that representing all possible permutations is out of the question due to the size of representation and computation). Instead, we took subset with hoping that they are indistinguishable from a random permutation
May 19, 2022 at 18:35 comment added kelalaka It seems you did not see this section. Lindell&Katz 3.5.1 Pseudorandom Functions and Permutations This is dealt in there.

May 19, 2022 at 18:06 comment added user918212 @kelalaka I think so mostly, however I suppose I am still a little unclear as to whether a random permutation as defined above still satisfies the definition of a block cipher, or whether we do not use it as one due to practical issues.
May 19, 2022 at 18:01 comment added kelalaka Does this answer your question? How are keys mapped to cipher texts in block ciphers with large block sizes?

May 19, 2022 at 16:34 comment added kelalaka Contradict to definition; What (precisely) is a block cipher? and besides this is well-written in textbooks.
