Abstract

The standard technique to attack triple encryption is the meet-in-the-middle attack which requires 2112 encryption steps. In this paper, more efficient attacks are presented. One of our attacks reduces the overall number of steps to roughly 2108. Other attacks optimize the number of encryptions at the cost of increasing the number of other operations. It is possible to break triple DES doing 290 single encryptions and no more than 2113 faster operations.
