  2. Block cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_cipher

    A block cipher uses blocks as an unvarying transformation. Even a secure block cipher is suitable for the encryption of only a single block of data at a time, using a fixed key. A multitude of modes of operation have been designed to allow their repeated use in a secure way to achieve the security goals of confidentiality and authenticity.

  3. Block cipher mode of operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_cipher_mode_of_operation

    The propagating cipher block chaining [25] or plaintext cipher-block chaining [26] mode was designed to cause small changes in the ciphertext to propagate indefinitely when decrypting, as well as when encrypting. In PCBC mode, each block of plaintext is XORed with both the previous plaintext block and the previous ciphertext block before being ...

  4. Feistel cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feistel_cipher

    The Skipjack cipher is an example of such a cipher. The Texas Instruments digital signature transponder uses a proprietary unbalanced Feistel cipher to perform challenge–response authentication. [8] The Thorp shuffle is an extreme case of an unbalanced Feistel cipher in which one side is a single bit. This has better provable security than a ...

  5. Cryptography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptography

    A block cipher enciphers input in blocks of plaintext as opposed to individual characters, the input form used by a stream cipher. The Data Encryption Standard (DES) and the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) are block cipher designs that have been designated cryptography standards by the US government (though DES's designation was finally ...

  6. Merkle–Damgård construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merkle–Damgård_construction

    The IV is a fixed value (algorithm- or implementation-specific). For each message block, the compression (or compacting) function f takes the result so far, combines it with the message block, and produces an intermediate result. The last block is padded with zeros as needed and bits representing the length of the entire message are appended.

    KHAZAD – 64-bit block designed by Barretto and Rijmen; Khufu and Khafre – 64-bit block ciphers; Kuznyechik – Russian 128-bit block cipher, defined in GOST R 34.12-2015 and RFC 7801. LION – block cypher built from stream cypher and hash function, by Ross Anderson; LOKI89/91 – 64-bit block ciphers; LOKI97 – 128-bit block cipher, AES ...

  8. Lai–Massey scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lai–Massey_scheme

    The Lai–Massey scheme is a cryptographic structure used in the design of block ciphers, [1] [2] an alternative to the Feistel network for converting a non-invertible keyed round function to an invertible keyed cipher. It is used in IDEA and IDEA NXT.

  9. CCM mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CCM_mode

    CCM mode (counter with cipher block chaining message authentication code; counter with CBC-MAC) is a mode of operation for cryptographic block ciphers. It is an authenticated encryption algorithm designed to provide both authentication and confidentiality. CCM mode is only defined for block ciphers with a block length of 128 bits. [1] [2]
