Whereas a block cipher enciphers messages of some one particular length the blocklength, a variable-input-length cipher takes messages of varying and preferably arbitrary leng...
The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is the Federal Information Processing Standard for symmetric encryption. It is widely believed to be secure and efficient, and is therefore b...
Abstract. We discuss the special requirements imposed on the underlying cipher of systems which encrypt each sector of a disk partition independently, and demonstrate a certificati...
With the establishment of the AES the need for new block ciphers has been greatly diminished; for almost all block cipher applications the AES is an excellent and preferred choice....

This paper presents several methods to construct trapdoor block ciphers. A trapdoor cipher contains some hidden structure; knowledge of this structure allows an attacker to obtain ...
