Automated differential–linear cryptanalysis of SIMON-like ciphers via truncated differential

Ciphers built on bitwise AND, XOR, and rotation are highly competitive for resource‑constrained Internet of Things devices. A representative example is the SIMON family of lightweight block ciphers, introduced by the U.S. National Security Agency in 2013. Differential‑linear (DL) cryptanalysis of such ciphers comprises...
