BISON - Instantiating the Whitened Swap-Or-Not Construction

Anne Canteaut, Virginie Lallemand, Gregor Leander, Patrick Neumann, and Friedrich Wiemer

Abstract

We give the first practical instance – BISON – of the Whitened Swap-Or-Not construction. After clarifying inherent limitations of the construction, we point out that this way of building block ciphers allows easy and very strong arguments against differential attacks.

Note: Added instance for even block length: WISENT; corrected some minor errors.
