Accordion Cipher-mode Preferable Features

June 20, 2024

Presenters

Tushar Patel - ATNA-CIPHER, LLC.

Description

  • ATNA-CIPHER, LLC. (aka ACL) is the incubation entity for the development of an accordion and tweakable style encryption cipher(+/-mode.), namely, “atnaCM.”
  • As NIST is not seeking a full proposal submission at this time; ACL would like to highlight some key features in the following 5 broad are categories as recommendations for an Accordion Mode.
  1. Enciphering Properties like Key Sizes, Block Cipher Sizes and Tweakable Block sizes
  2. Parallelism relating to large input sizes
  3. Confirmation of keys like encryption, integrity, etc.
  4. Fast Drop Tags for Authenticated Encryption
  5. Padding Attacks Prevention for all tweaks and enciphering properties
  • Subsequent slides present each ones of these topics in some light detail.
  • Note: In the slides, messages like payloads/packets are 1-unit of encryption from a possible larger set.
