    Martin Hell - Lunds University

Feedback with carry shift registers (FCSRs) can be seen as an alternative to LFSRs in stream cipher designs. Since the state is nonlinearly updated, the stream cipher +can be made more resistant to certain attacks than if LFSRs are used. In this talk I will give an overview of FCSR-based stream ciphers and discuss potential +weaknesses. One particular weakness has been exploited to mount efficient attacks on several constructions. Attacks will be presented in detail on the stream ciphers +FCSR-H and X-FCSR-256.

    Robert recently described a powerful correspondence between certain (Hermitian) modules and (polarized) abelian varieties, which simultaneously generalizes both the class-group action underlying protocols such as CSIDH, and the Deuring correspondence, underlying protocols such as SQIsign. Using this correspondence, he also proposed how to construct a post-quantum NIKE, called MIKE, which, at a[…]
