- Japan's only 128-bit block cipher encryption algorithm to be adopted - The selection is attributed to Camellia's high reputation for ease of procurement, and security and performance features ...

A formula used to turn ordinary data, or "plaintext," into a secret coded message known as "ciphertext." The ciphertext can reside in storage or travel over unsecure networks without its contents ...

A proprietary algorithm developed by RSA Data Security, Inc., RC2 is an alternative to DES. The algorithm expands a single message by up to 8 bytes. RC2 is a block cipher that encrypts data in blocks ...

Zero-correlation linear cryptanalysis is an important method to analyze the security of block ciphers. But there are few works on zero-correlation linear attacks combined with the related-key setting.

The National Security Agency (NSA) is offering two families of encryption algorithms, known as block ciphers, intended to provide a level of security for such processes as authentication or ...

Sony announced late last week that they have invented a new encryption mechanism known as "CLEFIA," a block cipher algorithm designed to help content producers deliver "advanced copy protection" with ...

Explore the inner workings of the javax.crypto.Cipher class in Java's cryptography API: understand its provider-based architecture ...
