Please explain the solution process in detail and let me know the answer at the end.
The Sboxes of the Feistel cipher are designed to support the avalanche criterion. In particular, by flipping one bit of the input of an Sbox, on average, at least two bits of the output will flip. This exercise wants you to show this for particular values. To help you, we first illustrate this for one input; you then must show this for another input.
In both cases, assume that all round keys are:
bits
a Case illustration: Let the input be:
bits
The table below is used to expand it
bits
The result is XORed with the key round key to get
bits
Then we use the substitution below
to get:
This is the bit output.
Next flip the first bit of the input, to get
expand it to
bits
xOR it with the round key to get,
bits
and then use the substitution above to get
This is the output. Notice that one flipped bit in the input of the first SBox has caused bits to flipped in the
output of the first substitution and anther bits in the output of the last substitution.
b Case Now do this for input same round key:
and then flip the third bit to see how many bits get flipped in the output. Show all your work, and don't forget
to count the number of flipped bits.
