. Concrete security proofs give upper bounds on the attacker’s advantage as a function of its time/query complexity. Cryptanalysis suggests however that other resource limitations – most notably, the attacker’s memory – could make the achievable advantage smaller, and thus these proven bounds too pessimistic. Yet, handling memory limitations has eluded existing security proofs. This paper initiates the study of time-memory trade-o ↵ s for basic symmetric cryptography. We show that schemes like counter-mode encryption, which are a ↵ ected by the Birthday Bound, become more secure (in terms of time complexity) as the attacker’s memory is reduced. One key step of this work is a generalization of the Switching Lemma: For adversaries with S bits of memory issuing q distinct queries, we prove an n -to- n bit random function indistinguishable from a permutation as long as S ˆ q ! 2 n . This result assumes a combinatorial conjecture, which we discuss, and implies right away trade-o ↵ s for deterministic, stateful versions of CTR and OFB encryption. We also show an unconditional time-memory trade-o ↵ for the security of randomized CTR based on a secure PRF. Via the aforementioned conjecture, we extend the result to assuming a PRP instead, assuming only one-block messages are encrypted. Our results solely rely on standard PRF/PRP security of an underlying block cipher. We frame the core of our proofs within a general framework of indistinguishability for streaming algorithms which may be of independent interest.
