Abstract
As the prevalence of quantum computing is growing in leaps and bounds over the past few years, there is an ever-growing need to analyze the symmetric key ciphers against the upcoming threat. Indeed, we have seen a number of research works dedicated to this. Our work delves into this aspect of block ciphers, with respect to the SPECK family and LOWMC family. The SPECK family received two quantum analysis till date (Jang et al., Applied Sciences, 2020; Anand et al., Indocrypt, 2020). We revisit these two works, and present improved benchmarks SPECK (all 10 variants). Our implementations incur lower full depth compared to the previous works. On the other hand, the quantum circuit of LOWMC was explored earlier in Jaques et al.’s Eurocrypt 2020 paper. However, there is an already known bug in their paper, which we patch. On top of that, we present two versions of LOWMC (on L1, L3 and L5 variants) in quantum, both of which incur significantly less full depth than the bug-fixed implementation.
