Submission to ECRYPT call for stream ciphers: the self-synchronizing stream cipher Mosquito
Joan Daemen · 2005
In this document we specify and motivate the hardware-oriented self-synchronizing stream cipher Mosquito and the underlying cipher architecture and provide hardware implementation results. This stream cipher is a close variant of the cipher ##, described in [2]. ## in its turn was a corrected version of the cipher KNOT published in [1], removing the weaknesses that have lead to its breaking in [4].
