In the first part of the dissertation, we deal with fault-based attacks on cryptographic circuits which belong to the field of active implementation attacks and aim to retrieve secret keys stored on such chips. Our main focus lies on the cryptanalytic aspects of those attacks. In particular, we target block ciphers with a lightweight and (often) non-bijective key schedule where the derived subkeys are (almost) independent from each other. An attacker who is able to reconstruct one of the subkeys is thus not necessarily able to directly retrieve other subkeys or even the secret master key by simply reversing the key schedule. We introduce a framework based on differential fault analysis that allows to attack block ciphers with an arbitrary number of independent subkeys and which rely on a substitution-permutation network. These methods are then applied to the lightweight block ciphers LED and PRINCE and we show in both cases how to recover the secret master key requiring only a small number of fault injections. Moreover, we investigate approaches that utilize algebraic instead of differential techniques for the fault analysis and discuss advantages and drawbacks. At the end of the first part of the dissertation, we explore fault-based attacks on the block cipher Bel-T which also has a lightweight key schedule but is not based on a substitution-permutation network but instead on the so-called Lai-Massey scheme. The framework mentioned above is thus not usable against Bel-T. Nevertheless, we also present techniques for the case of Bel-T that enable full recovery of the secret key in a very efficient way using differential fault analysis. In the second part of the thesis, we focus on authenticated encryption schemes. While regular ciphers only protect privacy of processed data, authenticated encryption schemes also secure its authenticity and integrity. Many of these ciphers are additionally able to protect authenticity and integrity of so-called associated data. This type of data is transmitted unencrypted but nevertheless must be protected from being tampered with during transmission. Authenticated encryption is nowadays the standard technique to protect in-transit data. However, most of the currently deployed schemes have deficits and there are many leverage points for improvements. With NORX we introduce a novel authenticated encryption scheme supporting associated data. This algorithm was designed with high security, efficiency in both hardware and software, simplicity, and robustness against side-channel attacks in mind. Next to its specification, we present special features, security goals, implementation details, extensive performance measurements and discuss advantages over currently deployed standards. Finally, we describe our preliminary security analysis where we investigate differential and rotational properties of NORX. Noteworthy are in particular the newly developed techniques for differential cryptanalysis of NORX which exploit the power of SAT- and SMT-solvers and have the potential to be easily adaptable to other encryption schemes as well.}, subject = {Kryptologie}, language = {en} }
