Parity-Based Concurrent Error Detection Schemes for the ChaCha Stream Cipher

Information Theory 2019-04-15 v1 Cryptography and Security math.IT

Abstract

We propose two parity-based concurrent error detection schemes for the Quarterround of the ChaCha stream cipher to protect from transient and permanent faults. They offer a trade-off between implementation overhead and error coverage. The second approach can detect any odd-weight error on the in-/output and intermediate signals of a Quarterround, while the first one requires less logic.
