Abstract
A substitution box is used to induce nonlinearity in plaintext for encryption systems. Recently, the application of chaotic maps to encryption applications has resulted in some interesting nonlinear transformations. In this paper, we propose an efficient method to design nonlinear components for block ciphers that are based on TD-ERCS chaotic sequence. The new substitution box is analyzed for nonlinearity, bit independence, strict avalanche criterion, generalized majority logic criterion, and differential and linear approximation probabilities. The results show high resistance to differential and linear cryptanalysis in comparison to some recently proposed chaotic substitution boxes.
