Abstract: Wireless networks, telecommunications, and information technologies connected de-vices in pervasive computing environments require a high speed encryption for providing a high security and a privacy. The CHESS-64 based on various controlled operations is designed forsuch applications. In this paper, however, we show that CHESS-64 doesn't have a high security level, more precisely, we present two related-key differential attacks on CHESS-64. The first at-tack requires about 244 data and 244 time complexities (recovering 20 bits of the master key)while the second attack needs about 239 data and 239 time complexities (recovering 6 bits of themaster key). These works are the first known cryptanalytic results on CHESS-64 so far.
