Security Proofs for Key-Alternating Ciphers with Non-Independent Round Permutations
This work studies the key-alternating ciphers (KACs) whose round permutations are not necessarily independent. We revisit existing security proofs for key-alternating ciphers with a single permutation (KACSPs), a...
