In this paper, we discuss and propose an efficiently parallelized block cipher algorithm on the CELL BE processor. With considering the heterogeneous feature of the CELL BE architecture, we apply different encoding/decoding methods to PPE and SPE and improve the throughput. Our implementation was fully tested, with execution results showing achievement of high throughput, capable of supporting as high network speed as 2.59 Gbps. Compared to various parallel implementations on multi-core systems, our approach provides speedup of 1.34 in terms of encoding/decoding speed.

This paper presents an efficient architecture that optimizes the design of SEED S-box using composite field arithmetic. SEED is the Korean standard 128-bit block cipher algorithm developed by Korea Information Security Agency. The nonlinear function S-box is the most costly operation in terms. of size and power consumption, taking up more than 30% of the entire SEED circuit. Therefore the S-box design can become a crucial factor when implemented in systems where resources are limited such as smart cards. In this paper, we transform elements in $GF(2^8)$ to composite field $GF(((2^2)^2)^2)$ where more efficient computations can be implemented and transform the computed result back to $GF(2^8)$. This technique reduces the S-box portion to 15% and the entire SEED algorithm can be implemented at 8,700 gates using Samsung smart card CMOS technology.

This paper presented a FPGA design of SEED, which is the Korea standard 128-bit block cipher. In this work, SEED was designed technology- independently for other applications such as ASIC or core-based designs. Hence in case of changing the target of design, it is not necessary to modify design or need only minor modification to reuse the design. Since SEED algorithm requires a lot of hardware resources, each unit was designed only once and used sequentially. So, the number of gates was minimized and SEED algorithm was fitted in FPGA without additional components. It was confirmed that the rate of resource usage is about 80% in ALTERA 10KE and the SEED design operates in a clock frequency of 131.57 MHz and an encryption rate of 29 Mbps.

This paper presents a study on a high-performance design for a block cipher algorithm implemented on modern many-core graphics processing units (GPUs). The recent emergence of VLSI technology makes it feasible to fabricate multiple processing cores on a single chip and enables general-purpose computation on a GPU (GPGPU). The GPU strategy offers significant performance improvements for all-purpose computation and can be used to support a broad variety of applications, including cryptography. We have proposed an efficient implementation of the encryption/decryption operations of a block cipher algorithm, SEED, on off-the-shelf NVIDIA many-core graphics processors. In a thorough experiment, we achieved high performance that is capable of supporting a high network speed of up to 9.5 Gbps on an NVIDIA GTX285 system (which has 240 processing cores). Our implementation provides up to 4.75 times higher performance in terms of encoding and decoding throughput as compared to the Intel 8-core system.

White-box cryptography is an implementation technique in order to protect secret keys of cryptographic algorithms in the white-box attack model, which is the setting that an adversary has full access to the implementation of the cryptographic algorithm and full control over their execution. This concept was introduced in 2002 by Chow et al., and since then, there have been many proposals for secure implementations. While there have been many approaches to construct a secure white-box implementation for the ciphers with SPN structures, there was no notable result about the white-box implementation for the block ciphers with Feistel structure after white-box DES implementation was broken. In this paper, we propose a secure white-box implementation for a block cipher SEED with Feistel structure, which can prevent the previous known attacks for white-box implementations. Our proposal is simple and practical: it is performed by only 3,376 table lookups during each execution and the total size of tables is 762.5 KB.

A differential fault attack(DFA) is one of the most efficient side channel attacks on block ciphers. Almost all block ciphers, such as DES, AES, ARIA, SEED and so on., have been analysed by this attack. In the case of the known DFAs on SEED, the attacker induces permanent faults on a whole left register of round 16. In this paper, we analyse SEED against DFA with differential characteristics and addition-XOR characteristics of the round function of SEED. The fault assumption of our attack is that the attacker induces 1-bit faults on a particular register. By using our attack, we can recover last round keys and the master key with about $2^{32}$ simple arithmetic operations. It can be simulated on general PC within about a couple of second.

This paper implemented into hardware SEED which is the KOREA standard 128-bit block cipher. First, at the respect of hardware implementation, we compared and analyzed SEED with AES finalist algorithms - MARS, RC6, RIJNDAEL, SERPENT, TWOFISH, which are secret key block encryption algorithms. The encryption of SEED is faster than MARS, RC6, TWOFISH, but is as five times slow as RIJNDAEL which is the fastest. We propose a SEED hardware architecture which improves the encryption speed. We divided one round into three parts, J1 function block, J2 function block J3 function block including key mixing block, because SEED repeatedly executes the same operation 16 times, then we pipelined one round into three parts, J1 function block, J2 function block, J3 function block including key mixing block, because SEED repeatedly executes the same operation 16 times, then we pipelined it to make it more faster. G-function is implemented more easily by xoring four extended 4 byte SS-boxes. We tested it using ALTERA FPGA with Verilog HDL. If the design is synthesized with 0.5 um Samsung standard cell library, encryption of ECB and decryption of ECB, CBC, CFB, which can be pipelined would take 50 clock cycles to encrypt 384-bit plaintext, and hence we have 745.6 Mbps assuming 97.1 MHz clock frequency. Encryption of CBC, OFB, CFB and decryption of OFB, which cannot be pipelined have 258.9 Mbps under same condition.

A differential fault analysis(DFA) is one of the most important side channel attacks on block ciphers. Most block ciphers, such as DES, AES, ARIA, SEED and so on., have been analysed by this attack. In 2008, Wei et al. proposed the first DFA on ARIA-128. Their attack can recover the 128-bit secrey key by about 45 faulty ciphertexts. In this paper, we propose an improved DFA on ARIA-128. We can recover the 12S-bit secret key by only 4 faulty ciphertexts with the computational complexity of O($2^{32}$).
