Links Between Theoretical and Effective Differential Probabilities: Experiments on PRESENT

Céline Blondeau
Benoît Gérard
Abstract

Recent iterated ciphers have been designed to be resistant to differential cryptanalysis. This implies that cryptanalysts have to deal with differentials having so small probabilities that, for a fixed key, the whole codebook may not be sufficient to detect it. The question is then, do these theoretically computed small probabilities have any sense? We propose here a deep study of differential and differential trail probabilities supported by experimental results obtained on a reduced version of PRESENT.
