Nonsmooth cryptanalysis, with an application to the stream cipher MICKEY
A new approach to the cryptanalysis of symmetric algorithms based on non-smooth optimisation is presented. We develop this technique as a novel way of dealing with nonlinearity over 𝔽2 by modeling the equations corresponding to the algorithm as a continuous optimisation problem that avoids terms of...
