Course Details

Introduction to Stream Ciphers: Understanding the basics of stream ciphers, their structure, and how they differ from block ciphers.
Stream Cipher Components: Exploring key streams, pseudorandom number generators (PRNGs), and keystream generators (KSGs).
Keystream Generation Algorithms: Examining common algorithms such as linear feedback shift registers (LFSR), self-synchronizing stream ciphers, and the A5/1 algorithm.
Cryptanalysis of Stream Ciphers: Learning about different attacks on stream ciphers, including known-plaintext attacks, correlation attacks, and distinguishing attacks.
Security Analysis of Stream Ciphers: Understanding how to analyze the security of a stream cipher, including its resistance to various attacks and its key space.
Stream Cipher Design Principles: Exploring best practices for designing secure stream ciphers, including key length, initialization vectors, and synchronization.
Stream Cipher Modes of Operation: Examining different modes of operation for stream ciphers, such as counter mode (CTR) and output feedback mode (OFB).
Stream Cipher Applications: Discussing real-world applications of stream ciphers, including secure communication protocols, Wi-Fi security, and digital rights management (DRM).
Stream Cipher Implementation Issues: Exploring potential implementation issues, such as timing attacks, power analysis, and side-channel attacks.
Stream Cipher Standards and Regulations: Understanding the current standards and regulations for stream ciphers, such as the Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) guidelines.
