Linearity in decimation-based generators: an improved cryptanalysis on the shrinking generator

Decimation-based sequence generators are a class of non-linear cryptographic generators designed to be used in hardware implementations. An inherent characteristic of such generators is that their output sequences are interleaved sequences. This profitable characteristic can be used in the cryptanal...
