Partial-matching meet-in-the-middle attack

ID: partial-matching-meet-in-the-middle-attack

The Partial-matching meet-in-the-middle attack is a cryptanalysis technique primarily used to break certain encryption schemes by exploiting the properties of symmetric key algorithms. This strategy generally applies to block ciphers and is especially effective when the key length is moderate, typically when combined with a few known plaintexts or ciphertexts.
