Let's say we have some very sensitive personal files. At all costs, we do not want any other pair of eyeballs to gaze upon them. We need these sensitive files to be secure and available. So, we have ...

I'm using the mul2, mul3, mul9, mul11, mul13 and mul14 tables for the MixColumn and InvMixColumn steps in AES-128. However, I got these off some Github repository, and now I'm looking for an actual ...

In the AES encryption process, there are various sub-operations, like SubByte, MixColumns, ARK etc. My question is which of these operations is more expensive? In a video lecture by Dan Boneh, it is ...

Cryptographic libraries mostly use pre-computed lookup tables to implement block ciphers. These lookup tables require large amout of memory and a series of cache miss/hit makes them vulnerable to ...

I recently made a very naive implementation of AES using lookup tables, but it's totally unsafe because of timing attacks. I am not interested in using the processor specific instructions for AES, ...

When applying the boolean masking countermeasure to a cipher which uses an S-box $S$, a way to handle this nonlinear operation is to recompute a new S-box $S'$ such that $S'(x \oplus r_{in}) = S(x) \...

T-Tables and S-Boxes are prone to side-channel attacks, is an implementation without any lookup tables resistant to side-channel ? In this answer, https://crypto.stackexchange.com/a/63520/80926, the ...

I know that implemntations with T-tables such as Golang's are prone to side-channel attacks, but is AES's S-Box wihtout any additional table also insecure ?

This could be a question for CodeReview.SE, but I thought it might require non-trivial cryptographic knowledge to merit it on-topic here. The C language is chosen as it's a common language for ...

I've been trying to find a solid method to prevent cache timing or other possible side channel attacks on an AES implementation, that uses lookup tables for S-box substitution. I realize that there ...

I was trying to make a software only implementation of AES (Rijndael). At first I was able to implement it using table lookups for the Galois field multiplication and also for the SBox, but, I really ...
