Abstract

Motivated by the impact of fast algebraic attacks on stream ciphers, and recent constructions using a threshold function as main part of the filtering function, we study the fast algebraic immunity of threshold functions. As a first result, we determine exactly the fast algebraic immunity of all majority functions in more than 8 variables. Then, For all n ≥ 8 and all threshold value between 1 and n we exhibit the fast algebraic immunity for most of the thresholds, and we determine a small range for the value related to the few remaining cases. Finally, provided m ≥ 2, we determine exactly the fast algebraic immunity of all threshold functions in 3 ⋅ 2m or 3 ⋅ 2m + 1 variables.
