History
In 1971, IBM developed an algorithm,
named LUCIFER which operates on a
block of 64 bits, using a 128-bit key
Walter Tuchman, an IBM researcher,
refined LUCIFER and reduced the key
size to 56-bit, to fit on a chip.

History
In 1977, the results of Tuchman’s
project of IBM was adopted as the Data
Encryption Standard by NSA (NIST).

A Simplified DES-Type Algorithm
 Suppose that a message has 12 bits and is w
ritten as L0R0 , where L0 consists of the first 6
bits and R0 consists of the last 6 bits.
 The key K has 9 bits. The ith round of the alg
orithm transforms an input Li-1Ri-1 to the output
LiRi using an 8-bit key Ki derived from K.
 The main part of the encryption process is a f
unction f(Ri-1,Ki) that takes a 6-bit input

Ri-1 and an 8-bit input Ki and produces a 6-bit
output which will be described later.
The output of the ith round is defined as:
Li = Ri-1 and Ri = Li-1 XOR f(Ri-1,Ki)
The decryption is the reverse of encryption.
[Ln] [Rn XOR f(Ln, Kn)] = … =[Rn-1] [Ln-1]

The Operations of f Function
 E(Li)=E(011001)=E(01010101) (Expander)
 S-boxes
S1 101 010 001 110 011 100 111 000
001 100 110 010 000 111 101 011
S2 100 000 110 101 111 001 011 010
101 011 000 111 110 010 001 100
The input for an S-box has 4 bits. The first
bit specifies which row will be used: 0 for 1st

 The other 3 bits represent a binary number that
specifies the column: 000 for the 1st column, 00
1 for the 2nd column, … 111 for the 7th column.
For example, an input 1010 for S1 box will yield
the output 110.
 The key K consists of 9 bits. Ki is the key for the
ith round starting with the ith bit of K. Let K=010
011001, then K4=01100101.

Ri-1=100110 and Ki=01100101
 E(Ri-1) XOR Ki =10101010 XOR 01100101
= 11001111
S1(1100)=000
S2(1111)=100
Thus, Ri = f(Ri-1,Ki)=000100, Li =Ri-1 =100110
Li-1Ri-1 = 011100100110 → (?) LiRi
100110011000

Decryption
 The same algorithm as e
ncryption.
 Reversed the order of key
(Key16, Key15, … Key1).
 For example:
 IP undoes IP-1
step of
encryption.
 1st round with SK16
undoes 16th encrypt round.

Strength of DES
 Criticism
 Reduction in key size of 72 bits
 Too short to withstand with brute-force attack
 S-boxes were classified.
 Weak points enable NSA to decipher without key.
 56-bit keys have 256
= 7.2 x 1016
values
 Brute force search looks hard.
 A machine performing one DES encryption per micros
econd would take more than a thousand year to break
the cipher.

Strength of DES (cont.)
 Avalanche effect in
DES
 If a small change in
either the plaintext or
the key, the ciphertext
should change
markedly.
 DES exhibits a strong
avalanche effect.

Ultimate
 DES was proved insecure
In 1997 on Internet in a few months
in 1998 on dedicated h/w (EFF) in a few days
In 1999 above combined in 22hrs!
