Abstract Some of the most important cryptographic characteristics of the Boolean and vector Boolean functions (nonlinearity, autocorrelation, differential uniformity) are connected with the Walsh spectrum. In this paper, we present several algorithms for computing the Walsh spectrum implemented in CUDA for parallel execution on GPU. They are based on the most popular sequential algorithm. The algorithms differ in the complexity of implementations, resources used, optimization strategies and techniques. In the end, we give some experimental results.
