Σύνοψη	Differential cryptanalysis is a statistical attack technique on symmetric block ciphers that analyzes differences in inputs and outputs to recover secret keys. Introduced by Eli Biham and Adi Shamir in 1990, differential cryptanalysis was the first practical attack on DES that outperformed brute force search. The technique exploits non-random properties of cipher transformations by studying how small changes in plaintext propagate through the cipher rounds. Differential cryptanalysis has shaped cipher design for three decades.	Taint analysis is a data flow analysis technique that tracks how untrusted (tainted) input flows through a program to identify vulnerabilities where tainted data reaches dangerous operations (sinks). Formalized by Newsome and Song in 2005, taint analysis marks input data as tainted and propagates taint labels through the program, alerting when tainted data reaches sensitive operations like SQL queries or system calls. Taint analysis is fundamental to detecting injection vulnerabilities and is widely used in dynamic analysis tools and security monitoring systems.
