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.

Cryptanalysis of full BEANIE
Orateur : Xavier Bonnetain - Inria
BEANIE is a tweakable block cipher recently published at ToSC aiming for memory encryption of microcontroller units. In line with this goal, it handles small plaintexts of only 32 bits and has a low latency. In this paper, we propose the first third-party analysis of the two variants of BEANIE. By carefully leveraging structural properties of the cipher and taking advantage of its distinctive[…]-
