  • Abstract
    In this correspondence, first we give a decomposition of symmetric Boolean functions, then we show that almost all symmetric Boolean functions, including these functions with good algebraic immunity, behave badly against fast algebraic attacks. Besides, we improve the relations between algebraic degree and algebraic immunity of symmetric Boolean functions.
