    Block Ciphers and The Data Encryption Standard (DES)

    Uploaded by

    Vasantha Kumari
    Block ciphers operate on blocks of plaintext and use encryption keys to produce ciphertext blocks of equal length. Many block ciphers, including the Data Encryption Standard (DES), use a Feistel structure with repeated rounds of processing halves of the data using subkey transformations to provide diffusion and confusion. DES was widely used until recently, using a 64-bit block size and 56-bit key in its Feistel network to encrypt plaintext blocks into ciphertext blocks.

    Block Ciphers and the Data

    Encryption Standard (DES)


    ◆ A block cipher is an encryption/decryption scheme in which a block of
    plaintext is treated as a whole and used to produce a ciphertext block of
    equal length.

    ◆ Many block ciphers have a Feistel structure. Such a structure consists


    of a number of identical rounds of processing. In each round, a
    substitution is
    performed on one half of the data being processed, followed by a
    permutation that interchanges the two halves. The original key is
    expanded so that a different key is used for each round.

    ◆ The Data Encryption Standard (DES) has been the most widely used
    encryption algorithm until recently. It exhibits the classic Feistel structure.
    DES uses a 64-bit block and a 56-bit key.

    (i) Stream Ciphers and Block Ciphers
    (ii) Motivation for the Feistel Cipher Structure
    A block cipher operates on a plaintext block of n bits to
    produce a ciphertext block of n bits. There are possible
    different plaintext blocks and, for the encryption to be
    reversible (i.e., for decryption to be possible), each must
    produce a unique ciphertext block. Such a transformation is
    called reversible, or nonsingular. The following examples
    illustrate nonsingular and singular transformations for n = 2.
    Ideal Block Cipher
    Confusion and Diffusion

     diffusion – makes the statistical relationship


    between plaintext and ciphertext as complex
    as possible.
     confusion – makes the statistical
    relationship between ciphertext and the
    value of encryption key as complex as
    possible.

    Avalanche Effect
     A desirable property of any encryption algorithm is
    that a small change in either the plaintext or the
    key should produce a significant change in the
    ciphertext.
     In particular, a change in one bit of the plaintext or
    one bit of the key should produce a change in
    many bits of the ciphertext. This is referred to as
    the avalanche effect.
     If the change were small, this might provide a way
    to reduce the size of the plaintext or key space to
    be searched.
