Attribution
i removed the attribution to Sean Murphy. his name isn't listed as being an author of any of the 4 papers Applied Cryptography's (comprehensive) bibliography lists for differential cryptanalysis. --jkominek
Haven't people apparently used differential cryptanalysis to break pay TV smartcards in Europe? --Robert Merkel
What does "white hat" mean, exactly? From context, it has something to do with lack of practicality... -- Cyan 00:50, 18 Nov 2003 (UTC)
Somehow Sean Murphy appeared again. I am terribly sorry for updating this, but Sean had nothing to do with differential cryptanalysis. It is a mistake in Bruce Scheneier's book - Applied Cryptography. --Orr Dunkelman, CS dept. Technion, orrd@cs.technion.ac.il
I think there were a couple of early papers by Sean Murphy, and another researcher called Bert Den Boer, which attacked FEAL using pairs of plaintexts encrypted under a fixed difference; these might arguably be called differential cryptanalysis and were published before Biham and Shamir. I think the latter should be credited, though. -- Matt
