zak100 Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 (edited) Hi, I am trying to understand the following question: In a 3-bit block cipher, suppose a sender transmits a cipher text including c(1), r(1), c(2), r(2), c(3), r(3) to a receiver. Find the original plaintext at the receiver. Here c(1) = 100, r(1) = 001, c(2) = 010, r(2)= 111, c(3) = 000, and r(3) = 100. A block cipher encryption key table (Ks) is also shown below: The answer for the first case is: M(1) = Ks(c(1) XOR r(1) = Ks(100) XOR 001 = 010 From the table, the output corresponding to 100 to 011. But the above answer is 010. I can't understand this. Somebody please guide me. Zulfi. Edited June 4, 2020 by zak100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
