In cryptography, KASUMI, also termed A5/3, is a block cipher used in the confidentiality (f8) and integrity algorithms (f9) for 3GPP mobile communications. A number of serious weaknesses in the cipher have been identified. In cryptography, MISTY1 (or MISTY-1) is a block cipher designed in 1995 by Mitsuru Matsui and others for Mitsubishi Electric. ...
In cryptography, the key size (alternatively key length) is a measure of the number of possible keys which can be used in a cipher. ...
In modern cryptography, symmetric key ciphers are generally divided into stream ciphers and block ciphers. ...
In cryptography, a Feistel cipher is a block cipher with a particular structure, named after IBM cryptographer Horst Feistel; it is also commonly known as a Feistel network. ...

Encryption Decryption In cryptography, a block cipher is a symmetric key cipher which operates on fixed-length groups of bits, termed blocks, with an unvarying transformation. ...
Confidentiality has been defined by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) as ensuring that information is accessible only to those authorized to have access and is one of the cornerstones of Information security. ...

KASUMI was designed by the Security Algorithms Group of Experts (SAGE), part of the European standards body ETSI. Rather than invent a cipher from scratch, an existing algorithm, MISTY1, was selected by SAGE and slightly optimised for implementation in hardware. Hence, both MISTY1 and KASUMI are very similar — kasumi (霞) is the Japanese word for "misty" — and the cryptanalysis of one is likely to be readily adaptable to the other. KASUMI maintains an efficient implementation in software. The European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) is a standardization organization of the telecommunications industry (equipment makers and network operators) in Europe, with worldwide projection. ...
In cryptography, MISTY1 (or MISTY-1) is a block cipher designed in 1995 by Mitsuru Matsui and others for Mitsubishi Electric. ...
KASUMI has a block size of 64 bits and a key size of 128 bits. It is a Feistel cipher with eight rounds, and like MISTY1 and MISTY2, it has a recursive structure, with subcomponents also having a Feistel-like form. In modern cryptography, symmetric key ciphers are generally divided into stream ciphers and block ciphers. ...

In 2005, Israeli researchers Eli Biham, Orr Dunkelman and Nathan Keller published a related-key rectangle (boomerang) attack on KASUMI that can break all 8 rounds faster than exhaustive search. The attack requires 254.6 chosen plaintexts, each of which has been encrypted under one of four related keys, and has a time complexity equivalent to 276.1 KASUMI encryptions. While this is not a practical attack, it invalidates some proofs about the security of the 3GPP protocols that had relied on the presumed strength of KASUMI. Eli Biham is an Israeli cryptographer and cryptanalyst, currently a professor at the Technion Israeli Institute of Technology Computer Science department. ...
In cryptography, the boomerang attack is a method for the cryptanalysis of block ciphers, based on differential cryptanalysis invented by David Wagner in 1999. ...
In 2006 Elad Barkan, Eli Biham and Nathan Keller demonstrated attacks against A5/1 and A5/2, that allow attackers to tap GSM mobile phone conversations and decrypt them either in real-time, or at any later time. Protocol weaknesses allow recovery of the key, but the KASUMI algorithm is unaffected in itself. Eli Biham is an Israeli cryptographer and cryptanalyst, currently a professor at the Technion Israeli Institute of Technology Computer Science department. ...
