Abstract
Encryption is one of the most effective methods of
securing data confidentiality, whether stored on hard drives or
transferred (e.g. by e-mail or phone call). In this paper a new state
recovery attack with tabu search is introduced. Based on research
and theoretical approximation it is shown that the internal state
can be recovered after checking 252 internal states for RC4 and
2180 for VMPC.
