Symmetric cryptology is one of the two main branches of cryptology. Its applications are essential and vital in the Information Age, due to the efficiency of its constructions.

The scope of this book in two volumes is two-fold. First, it presents the most important ideas that have been used in the design of symmetric primitives, their inner components and their most relevant constructions. Second, it describes and provides insights on the most popular cryptanalysis and proof techniques for analyzing the security of the above algorithms. A selected number of future directions, such as post-quantum security or design of ciphers for modern needs and particular applications, are also discussed.

Symmetric-key cryptology is one of the two main branches of modern cryptology. On the one hand, it comprises primitives and constructions for providing security services such as confidentiality, integrity and authentication, the particularity being that the same secret key k is used at both sides. On the other hand, it studies and provides cryptanalysis and proof techniques for analyzing the security of the above constructions. Even if in general keyless, some hash functions are also considered as part of this family of algorithms because of the similarities in their construction and analysis with the other symmetric-key primitives.

Symmetric-key algorithms are essential for communication security as they are built on simple operations (e.g. XOR, logical AND and so on) and for this reason they can achieve a high speed in both software and hardware implementations. They are in particular much faster and lighter than public-key algorithms, having at the same time much shorter encryption keys. The security and efficiency of modern communications is heavily based on symmetric algorithms and for this reason symmetric-key cryptology is a very important and constantly developing branch of modern cryptography.

This book is divided into two volumes. The first volume is composed of 14 chapters, where the first nine chapters are dedicated to the description of the most important design principles for stream ciphers, (tweakable) block ciphers, cryptographic permutations, hash functions as well as for their inner components. The five remaining chapters are reserved to the presentation of the most important security proof techniques. The second volume is dedicated to the most important cryptanalysis techniques for symmetric ciphers. It also discusses some promising future directions for the domain.

We believe that the two volumes of this work will be of interest to researchers, to master's and PhD students studying or working in the field of cryptography, as well as to all professionals working in the field of cybersecurity.
