Step 1
Intro
Cipher block chaining mode in DES (Date Encryption Standard):
- It is a type of cipher mode where all the cipher blocks are chained to avoid the replacement of blocks.
- In this model, all the blocks are chained before encryption; the plaintext in a block is XOR (Exclusive OR) with a cipher text of the previous bloc.
- Here, the key advantage is that the output present in the cipher text block is not the same as the plaintext block.

Step 2
Solution:
Cipher feedback mode in DES (Data Encryption Standard):
- This type of mode is used to encrypt the data by byte-to-byte.
- It is similar to the cipher block chaining mode, if the encryption process in cipher block chaining is reversed, it is the decryption process of Cipher feedback mode.
- During the encryption process, one byte is encrypted first and sent out. Then the encryption process is carried out with the next byte.
Conclusion:
- The output stream generated by the encryption process in cipher feedback mode is 1 byte.
- The output stream generated by the encryption process in cipher block chaining mode is 8 bytes.
Comparing the efficiency:
Therefore, the encryption in cipher block chaining mode is 8 times more efficient than the cipher feedback mode.
