Energy-optimized Symmetric Cryptography by Algebraic Duality Analysis
The main scientific contribution of this project will be a breakthrough in the understanding of cryptanalytic and side channel attacks of symmetric cryptosystems. We will do this by a unification of attacks that will a stepping stone to the holy grail of symmetric cryptography: provable security of concrete cryptosystems. The main real-world impact is that we will build cryptosystems that are much more efficient than those used today while having the same strength. Depending on the platform, higher efficiency translates to lower energy/power (in-body sensors, contactless payment cards etc.), but also lower latency (authentication for e.g car brakes or airbags) and/or lower heat dissipation…
