Xinxin Fan, Kalikinkar Mandal, Guang Gong · ICST Transactions on Security and Safety · 2015
Lightweight cryptographic primitives are essential for securing pervasive embedded devices like RFID tags, smart cards, and wireless sensor nodes. In this paper, we present a lightweight stream cipher WG-8, which is tailored from the well-known Welch-Gong (WG) stream cipher family, for resource-co
