Security Evaluation Against Linear Cryptanalysis for a Class of Block Cipher Transform Cluster
Linear cryptanalysis is a powerful attack on block ciphers. To evaluate the security against linear cryptanalysis is one of the most important part for the security evaluation of block ciphers. In this paper
the concept of four-block CLEFIA-like transform cluster is put forward based on the background of practical application. Using the relation between linear approximations of two special block cipher structures
security evaluation against linear cryptanalysis for all block cipher structures of the cluster is given. Moreover
some open problems are given. We provide a novel idea for the security evaluation of block ciphers by using transform cluster to study block ciphers.
