A Statistical Analysis for High-Speed Stream Ciphers

摘要

The current article statistically analyzes several high-speed stream ciphers. The study focuses on frequency cryptanalysis and the goodness-of-fit test. The purpose of this work is to show if there is a signature left by these stream ciphers in each of the encrypted streams. In addition, the work compares these ciphers to indicate which is the safest against statistical cryptanalysis.
