Feistel Networks are one of the most well-known schemes to design block ciphers. Generalized Feistel Networks are used to construct only block ciphers but also hash functions. Many generic attacks on Feistel schemes have been studied. Among these attacks, recently proposed meet-in-the-middle attacks are one of the most effective attacks. In this paper, we analyze the security of meet-in-the-middle attacks on generalized Feistel Networks.

Parallel processing in block cryptographic algorithm is difficult, because Feistel structure that is basis structure of block cryptographic algorithm is sequential processing structure. Therefore this paper changes these sequential processing structure and Feistel structure made parallel processing to be possible. This paper that apply this modified structure designed DES that have parallel Feistel structure. Proposed parallel Feistel structure could prove greatly block cryptographic algorithm's performance such as DES and so on that could not but have trade-off relation the data processing speed and data security interval because block cryptographic algorithm can not use pipeline method because of itself structural problem. Therefore, modified Feistel structure is going to display more superior security function and processing ability of high speed than now in case apply way that is proposed to SEED, AES's Rijndael, Twofish etc. that apply Feistel structure.

With the brilliant development of information communication and the rapid spread of internet, current network communication is carrying several up-to-date functions such as electronic commerce, activation of electro currency or electronic signature and will produce more advanced services in the future. Information communication network such as that electronic commerce would demand the more safe and transparent guard of network, and anticipate the more fast performance of network. In this paper, in order to meet the several demands, DES(data encryption standard) with parallel feistel structure, which feistel structure of the basic structure of DES is transformed into in parallel, is proposed. The existing feistel structure can't use pipeline method for the structural problem of DES itself-the propagation of error. therefore, this modified parallel feistel structure could improve largely the performance of DES which had to have the trade-off relation between data processing speed and data security and in addition a method proposed in SEED having adopted the modified parallel feistel structure shows more excellent secure function and/or fast processing ability. The used CAD Tool use Synopsys Ver. 1999. 10 in both of synthesis and simulation.

This document outlines a new color image encryption technology development. After splitting the original image into 240-bit blocks and modifying the first block by an initialization vector, an improved Feistel circuit is applied, sponsored by a genetic crossover operator and then strong chaining between the encrypted block and the next clear block is attached to set up the confusion-diffusion and heighten the avalanche effect, which protects the system from any known attack. Simulations carried out on a large database of color images of different sizes and formats prove the robustness of such a system.

본 논문에서는 feistel 암호 알고리즘에서 전방향(feedforward) 신경회로망으로 암호 함수(f)를 구성하는 블록 암호 알고리즘 방법을 제안한다. 신경회로망의 가중치(weight)를 키(key)로 사용하여 암호화 및 복호화를 수행한다. 신경회로망의 비선형적인 특성과 각각의 층을 구성하고 있는 뉴런 간의 방대한 연결로 복잡한 구조이지만, 실제 뉴런은 단순 처리만을 수행하고, 대단위 병렬처리가 가능하다. 은닉층의 구성에 따라 여러 형태의 설계가 가능하다.

In this paper, we designed a 128-bit block cipher, Lambda, which has 16-round extended Feistel structure and analyzed its secureness by the differential cryptanalysis and linear cryptanalysis. We could have full diffusion effect from the two rounds of the Lambda. Because of the strong diffusion effect of the algorithm, we could get a 8-round differential characteristic with probability $2^{-192}$ and a linear characteristic with probability $2^{-128}$. For the Lambda with 128-bit key, there is no shortcut attack, which is more efficient than the exhaustive key search, for more than 8 rounds of the algorithm.

In this paper, we designed a 128-bits block cipher, Circle-g, which has 18-rounds modified Feistel structure and analyzed its secureness by the differential cryptanalysis and linear cryptanalysis. We could have full diffusion effect from the two rounds of the Circle-g. Because of the strong diffusion effect of the F-function of the algorithm, we could get a 9-rounds DC characteristic with probability 2^{-144} and a 12-rounds LC characteristic with probability 2^{-144}. For the Circle-g with 128-bit key, there is no shortcut attack, which is more efficient than the exhaustive key search, for more than 12 rounds of the algorithm.

In this paper a modified Feistel network 128 bit block cipher algorithm is proposed. The proposed algorithm has a 128, 196 or 256 bit key and it updates a selected 32 bit word from input value whole by deformed Feistel Network structure. Existing of such structural special quality is getting into block cipher algorithms and big distinction. The proposed block cipher algorithm shows much improved software speed compared with international standard block cipher algorithm AES and domestic standard block cipher algorithm SEED and ARIA. It may be utilized much in same field coming smart card that must perform in limited environment if use these special quality.

선진국들은 공모 사업을 통해 많은 블록 암호가 개발되었으나 국내에서 개발된 블록 암호들은 크게 주목 받지 못했다. 블록 암호 개발은 기본의 암호와 차별성, 안전성 그리고 여러 플랫폼에서의 효율성이 중시되는데 이러한 조건을 다 만족하는 것은 쉽지 않기 때문이다. 본 논문은 128bit 블록 단위에서 128, 196, 256bit 키를 사용하는 새로운 블록 암호 알고리즘을 제안한다. 기존의 블록 암호 알고리즘은 SPN(Substitution-Permutation Network)구조, Feistel Network구조 등인데 본 논문에서 제안한 블록 암호 알고리즘은 변형된 Feistel Network구조로 입력 값 전체에서 선택된 32bit 만 update된다. 이러한 구조적 특성은 기존은 블록 암호 알고리즘들과 큰 차별이 되고 있다. PKC블록 암호 알고리즘은 국제 표준 블록 암호 알고리즘인 AES와 국내 표준 블록 암호 알고리즘인 SEED와 수행 속도 면에서 동등하거나 많이 개선된 것을 보이고 있다. 이러한 특성을 이용하면 제한된 환경에서 수행해야 하는 스마트카드 와 같은 분야에 많이 활용 될 수 있을 것이다.
