Beschreibung
Feistel networks are one of the easiest ways to build pseudorandom permutations. Thanks to this property, many secret key algorithms (symmetric ciphers) have been designed as Feistel networks, and it is possible to design many others. The most famous of them is probably the Data Encryption Standard algorithm, a former U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology standard block cipher, originally released in 1977.
This book provides a comprehensive survey of different kinds of Feistel ciphers, including their definitions and mathematical/computational properties.
Topics and features:
- Description of the best-known attacks against the Data Encryption Standard algorithm, including linear cryptanalysis, differential cryptanalysis, and Davies’ attack
- Generic attacks against balanced, unbalanced, and generalized Feistel networks
- Up-to-date security analysis of balanced Feistel networks
- Quantum cryptanalysis of Feistel networks
The results consolidated in this volume provide an overview of this important cipher design to researchers and practitioners willing to understand the design and security analysis of Feistel ciphers.

Provides a comprehensive survey on different kinds of Feistel ciphers, including attacks and security results Consolidates many results on Feistel ciphers that are currently discussed in numerous research papers Develops the coefficients H method (for proofs on symmetric-key schemes) and the variance method (for better attacks)
