Table 3 Importance of Toffoli Gate.
From: DynBlock: dynamic data encryption with Toffoli gate for IoT
Aspect | Role of Toffoli Gate |
|---|---|
Security (confusion and diffusion) | Introduces a non-linear, conditional transformation that increases the complexity of bit interactions and enhances avalanche effect |
Entropy and randomness | Increases output entropy by reducing bit predictability, leading to statistical randomness |
Quantum resistance | Acts as a universal gate in quantum circuits |
Avalanche effect | Applies conditional XOR-style logic that contributes to a mean avalanche effect of over 57% |
Hardware efficiency | A reversible logic gate that reduces unnecessary power dissipation |
Substitution layer enhancement | Used in place of static S-boxes to enable dynamic substitution |
Throughput optimization | Reduces total gate count and simplifies operations |
Side-channel attack resistance | Introduces unpredictable logic paths, enhancing resilience against attacks |
