This paper discusses the security of the Fast Data Encipherment Algorithm (FEAL) against Linear Cryptanalysis. It has been confirmed that the entire subkeys used in FEAL-8 can be derived with 225 pairs of known plaintexts and ciphertexts with a success rate approximately 70% spending about 1 hour using a WS (SPARCstation 10 Model 30). This paper also evaluates the security of FEAL-N in comparison with that of the Data Encryption Standard (DES).
