Monoalphabetic ciphers

• Assumeanalphabet– abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz_

• Indextheletters– a is1,b is2,c is3,…,z is26,_ is27

• Selectakey(secret),whichshifts theorder– Assumingthekeyis3,thena isshiftedthreelettersandbecomesd,andz becomesb (wrapsaroundthealphabet)

SYMMETRICCIPHERS

HillCipher

• Eachletterisinterpretedasanumber(0-25)• Messageiswrittenasamatrix– CATbecomes:

• Forencryption– C=KM–M =K-1 C

M = 0

19

Transposition

• Producesanewpermutation ofthemessage• Doesnotchangethestatisticsofthemessage• Easiestwaytoimplementitisbymatrixmultiplication

28

Transposition

• Initialorder:[1,2,3,4,5]• Ifyouwanttoproduce[3,1,2,5,4]youneedtomultiplyitusing

0 0 0 0 1

BasicOperations

• Substitution(αντικατάσταση)– Changesthestatisticsofthemessagebysubstitutingletterswithotherletters

• Transposition (μετάθεση)– Reordersthelettersofthemessage

• Botharelinearoperations(reversible)

30

SymmetricCiphers

• Relativelyfast• Onekeyencryptsanddecrypts• Block-basedorStream-based• Severalrounds– SubstitutionsandTranspositions– Notonletters,butonbits(orbytes)

• Majorweakness– Keydistribution

ModernSymmetricCiphers

• Basedon– Substitutionsandtranspositions

• Verycomplex• Type– Block– Stream

• Blockcipher– A blockofplaintextistreatedasawholeandusedtoproduceablockofciphertext ofequallength

– Typically,ablocksizeof64or128bitsisused• Streamcipher– Plaintextistreatedasadatastream andonebitoronebyteisprocessedatatime

Mapping:key4bitsx16rows

=64bits!

Problems

• Vulnerabletostatisticalattacks– Smallblockscantakelimitedtransformations– Largeblocks(increasen)areimpractical

• Keysize:4bitsx16rows– Ingeneral:nx2n

– Approximatetheidealcase– Example:64-bitblockrequiresakeyof64x264=1021bits(!!)

38

PracticalCiphers• Goal– Approximatetheidealcipher– Reducestatisticalpropertiesbetweenplaintext,ciphertext,andkey(s)

• CombiningSubstitutionsandTranspositions– Substitution:Eachplaintextelementorgroupofelementsisuniquelyreplacedbyacorrespondingciphertextelementorgroupofelements

– Transposition:Asequenceofplaintextelementsisreplacedbyapermutationofthatsequence;noelementsareaddedordeletedorreplacedinthesequence,rathertheorderinwhichtheelementsappearinthesequenceischanged
