Domaine(s)
  • Guerre électronique
  • Renseignement (Militaire)
  • Chiffrage et déchiffrage
CONT

Pour déterminer le degré de sécurité intrinsèque d'un algorithme, il faudrait, dit-il, définir d'abord la meilleure méthode d'attaque (et non pas la meilleure méthode connue) et pour illustrer l'écart entre la sécurité historique et la sécurité intrinsèque, il cite l'exemple de la norme DES («Data Encryption Standard»).
