[object Object],[object Object],RC4 Algorithm (contd…) The key-scheduling algorithm (KSA) The key-scheduling algorithm is used to initialize the permutation in the array "S". "keylength" is defined as the number of bytes in the key and can be in the range 1 ≤ keylength ≤ 256, corresponding to a key length of 40 – 128 bits. First, the array "S" is initialized to the identity permutation. S is then processed for 256 iterations. for i from 0 to 255 S[i] := i endfor j := 0 for i from 0 to 255 j := (j + S[i] + key[i mod keylength]) mod 256 Swap (S[i],S[j]) endfor

[object Object],[object Object],RC4 Algorithm (contd…) The pseudo-random generation algorithm (PRGA) For as many iterations as are needed, the PRGA modifies the state and outputs a byte of the keystream. In each iteration, the PRGA increments i , adds the value of S pointed to by i to j , exchanges the values of S[ i ] and S[ j ], and then outputs the value of S at the location S[i] + S[j] (modulo 256). Each value of S is swapped at least once every 256 iterations. i := 0 j := 0 while GeneratingOutput: i := (i + 1) mod 256 j := (j + S[i]) mod 256 Swap(S[i],S[j]) Output S[(S[i] + S[j]) mod 256] ^ input[i] endwhile
