Abstract In this paper a novel block encryption algorithm, which is called CFCEA, is proposed by combining the one dimensional discrete chaotic map and Feistel network. The algorithm operates on 64bit plaintext blocks, and the master key is 128 bit long, and an auxiliary key with size of 128 bit is exploited. Within the round function, the logistic chaotic map and three algebraic group operations are mixed. Moreover, the subkeys schedule is specially designed for the consideration of the security. The cryptographic properties of the algorithm are analyzed, and the results indicate that this algorithm satisfies the strict avalanche criterion and as a result, the diffusion and confusion properties of the algorithm are very ideal. Furthermore, when the block length is 64bit, the approximately upper bound of differential probability and linear probability of CFCEA is 2-52.92 and 2-49.206, respectively. This shows that the algorithm can resist differential and linear cryptanalysis with some strength.
