VEST is a set of four stream cipher families submitted by S. O’Neil, B. Gittins and H. Landman to the eSTREAM call for stream cipher proposals of the European project ECRYPT. The...
This paper presents the results of a preliminary analysis of the stream cipher Mugi. We study the nonlinear component of this cipher and identify several potential weaknesses in it...
This paper presents Dragon, a new stream cipher constructed using a single word based non-linear feedback shift register and a nonlinear filter function with memory. Dragon uses a ...
