A practical measure to estimate the immunity of block ciphers against differential and linear attacks consists of finding the minimum number of active S-Boxes, or a lower bound for this minimum number. The evaluation result of lower bounds of differentially active S-boxes of AES, Camellia (without FL/FL − − 1) and Feistel ciphers with an MDS based matrix of branch number 9, showed that the percentage of active S-boxes in Feistel ciphers is lower than in AES. The cause is a difference cancellation property which can occur at the XOR operation in the Feistel structure. In this paper we propose a new design strategy to avoid such difference cancellation by employing multiple MDS based matrices in the diffusion layer of the F-function. The effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed by an experimental result showing that the percentage of active S-boxes of the newly designed Feistel cipher becomes the same as for the AES.
