Abstract(in English) In this paper, we focus on a keystream of RC4 PRGA. The analysis of the transitions of two permutations, S and S', with some differences in the initial round were argued in [17] [18] [11]. Recently the existence of colliding keys was shown theoretically in [7] even if a secret key length is short. In addition, the existence of pairs of the secret key that generate two permutations, S and S', with two bytes differences in the initial round was shown theoretically. In this paper, we investigate how the structure mixes the permutation S by observing correlation between two keystream Z and Z' which are generated by two permutations, S and S', with some differences in the initial round. We show that we can suppose the part of the initial permutation with the probability that is higher than the random.
