Description
Feedback with carry shift registers (FCSRs) can be seen as an alternative to LFSRs in stream cipher designs. Since the state is nonlinearly updated, the stream cipher +can be made more resistant to certain attacks than if LFSRs are used. In this talk I will give an overview of FCSR-based stream ciphers and discuss potential +weaknesses. One particular weakness has been exploited to mount efficient attacks on several constructions. Attacks will be presented in detail on the stream ciphers +FCSR-H and X-FCSR-256.

Polytopes in the Fiat-Shamir with Aborts Paradigm
Speaker : Hugo Beguinet - ENS Paris / Thales
The Fiat-Shamir with Aborts paradigm (FSwA) uses rejection sampling to remove a secret’s dependency on a given source distribution. Recent results revealed that unlike the uniform distribution in the hypercube, both the continuous Gaussian and the uniform distribution within the hypersphere minimise the rejection rate and the size of the proof of knowledge. However, in practice both these[…]-
