Abstract

Nowadays, it is important to deliver information in a safe and confidential manner to specific individuals or entities. As the best way for the defense is to attack, therefore, cryptanalysis study is important to highlight any weakness of any security algorithm. Usually, attackers or any third-party tries to intercept to do any malicious actions that might cause problems. Bluefish encryption is one of the main methods of protection, which is a 64-bit Feistel network process. The objective of this review paper is to find out in the literature the possible cryptanalysis methods that applied to bluefish encryption. Where, the analyst tries to analyze the ciphers of a particular encryption algorithm by using many traditional methods. Thus, in this paper, review will be dedicated for try to analyze the ciphers using artificial intelligence on symmetric encryption algorithms, such as Blowfish. This approach to cryptanalysis may be more efficient than traditional methods in terms of accuracy, speed, and memory usage.
