Cryptanalysis of GOST

These are the major differences between DES and GOST.

— DES has a complicated procedure for generating the subkeys from the keys. GOST has a very simple procedure.
— DES has a 56-bit key; GOST has a 256-bit key. If you add in the secret S-box permutations, GOST has a total of about 610 bits of secret information.
