Abstract

When designing a new block cipher, the authors must ensure that its design is strong enough for potential attacks or security leaks. That is why at least basic cryptanalysis must be conducted which would point out potential flaws of the crytosystem. In this paper we will discuss some security aspects important for the block cipher BCMPQ - Block Cipher by Matrix Presentation of Quasigroups, for its security and reliability.
