This is a question out of curiosity! I really dontdon't know of any other block cipher that is as secure as AES that has a substitution permutation structure and can be used as an alternative to AES to protect implementations fromagainst cache timing attacks.
Searching Google, revealed other NIST finalists, but the best of them had a Fiestel structureFeistel structure. There are also many others, but the confidence on their securitythere is lessless confidence in them compared to to AES.
I am looking for a good block cipher that is similar in structure to AES with same level of security, and efficient to implement in software, for both small and large devices... Every help will be greatly appreciated!!!
