On the Cryptanalysis of a Simplified AES Using a Hybrid Binary Grey Wolf Optimization by Rizk M. Rizk-Allah, Hatem Abdulkader, Samah S. Abd Elatif, Diego Oliva, Guillermo Sosa-Gómez, Václav Snášel

“…Cryptosystem cryptanalysis is regarded as an NP-Hard task in modern cryptography. Due to block ciphers that are part of a modern cipher and have nonlinearity and low autocorrelation in their structure, traditional techniques and brute-force attacks suffer from breaking the key presented in traditional techniques, and brute-force attacks against modern cipher S-AES (simplified-advanced encryption standard) are complex. …”
