Understanding Linear Cryptanalysis

I'm reading about the linear cryptanalysis of an SPN and I have some questions about the practicality of this. The example I'm looking at is from 3.3.3 of Stinson's Book and I believe the same example ...

ε-close to t-wise inependence of SPN (AES)

According to theorem 3.13, the 6 rounds of AES is 0.472-close to pairwise independence. It is also mentioned t-wise independence used to analyze higher order derivates attacks. it is also mentioned 3-...

Design of SIMD-implemented cipher

Design of efficient of block ciphers needs consideration of many factors such as register size. i found that some ciphers can be SIMD implemented such as TWINE , SM4 , chacha20 ,SPIX ,and others. ...

Connecting, joining or merging Substitution Permutation layer

I am trying to identify how the SP Network is constructed. I am looking for plausible solutions that help to connect these layers together and what are the ways that exist in literature other than Kam ...

Substitution-permutation network

Can anyone in 6th grade English explain the steps in the Substitution-permutation network algorithm or just point a link that does so? (which is included in many of the top modern algorithms) ...

In SPN block cipher, is each bit of the ciphertext dependent on each bit of the S-boxes set?

In substitution–permutation network block ciphers like AES, when encrypting a plaintext into a ciphertext, will each bit of the ciphertext be associated to each bit of the S-boxes set in the cipher? I ...
