MINAB: A Lightweight 8‐Bit S‐Box With Low Hardware Complexity for Cryptographic Applications
In this paper, a lightweight S‐box with acceptable cryptographic properties is presented. The proposed S‐box is designed using smaller S‐boxes. Here, we design an 8‐bit S‐box with a nonlinearity of 100 by combining three 4‐bit S‐boxes using SageMath. The 4‐bit S‐boxes have favorable hardware and cryptographic charact...
