Abstract
In this chapter we given a brief description of the block cipher DES [33]. Both differential cryptanalysis and linear cryptanalysis were successfully applied to the DES: differential cryptanalysis was the first chosen-plaintext attack, and linear cryptanalysis was the first known-plaintext attack that was theoretically more efficient than an exhaustive key search for the DES. Resistance against these two attacks is the most important criterion in the design of Rijndael.
