Abstract

In this paper we discuss the idea of block cipher embeddings and consider a natural algebraic framework for such constructions. In this approach we regard block cipher state spaces as algebras and study some properties of cipher extensions on larger algebras. We apply this framework to some well-known examples of AES embeddings.
