Efficient and Secure Word-Based Stream Ciphers for Wireless Communications

无线网络越来越多地被用于通信，以及管理和控制澳大利亚的关键基础设施。然而，目前保护无线网络的方法存在缺陷，将该国的经济、环境和公民置于危险之中。保护无线通信的最可靠方法需要安全高效的加密算法。然而，迄今为止提出的大多数算法都存在缺陷。本项目将检查现有算法和攻击，以确定无线环境中使用的安全加密算法的设计标准。将提出一种满足这些标准并且可以在硬件和软件中高效实现的算法。

Wireless networks are increasingly being used for communication, and to manage and control Australia's critical infrastructure. However, current methods of securing wireless networks are flawed, putting the country's economy, environment, and citizens at risk. The most reliable method for protecting wireless communications requires secure and efficient encryption algorithms. However, flaws have been found in most algorithms proposed to date. This project will examine existing algorithms and attacks to determine design criteria for secure encryption algorithms for use in a wireless environment. An algorithm which meets these criteria and can be implemented efficiently in hardware and software will be proposed.
