Stream ciphers therfore have a state which is automaticaly updated to produce the next element of the keystream. Most Streamciphers produce a fixed length of keytream per iteration which may be a byte, a bit or any other data unit. Implemented stream ciphers: - A5/1 (A5_1.h) - ARCFOUR (RC4 compatible) (arcfour.h) - Grain (grain.h) - Trivium (trivium.h) \subsection Block-ciphers Block ciphers Block cipher encrypt/decrypt fixed length blocks (mostly 64 bits or 128 bits) with a key. Most block ciphers iterate a round function which uses a so-called round key. The round keys are generated on the fly or with a special init function (this is cipher specific). Round keys are stored in a context which is not modifyed by the encryption or decryption function. Also the same context can be used for encryption and decryption and depends only on the key and its length. Implemented block ciphers: - Camellia (camellia.h) - CAST5 (a.k.a CAST-128) (cast5.h) - CAST6 (a.k.a CAST-256) (cast6.h) - DES & Tripple-DES (EDE) (des.h) - Noekeon (noekeon.h) - RC5 (rc5.h) - RC6 (rc6.h) - SEED (seed.h) - Serpent (serpent.h) - Shabea (shabea.h) - SHACAL-1 (encryption only) (shacal1_enc.h) - SHACAL-2 (encryption only) (shacal2_enc.h) - Skipjack (skipjack.h) - XTEA (xtea.h) \subsection Hashes Hashes A Hash function produces a fixed length output (called hash value or message digest) from a variable length message input. Implemented hash functions: - MD5 (md5.h) - SHA-1 (sha1.h) - SHA-256 (sha256.h) \subsection MACs Message-Authentification-Codes (MACs) - HMAC-SHA-1 (hmac-sha1.h) - HMAC-SHA-256 (hmac-sha256.h) \subsection PRNGs Pseudo-Random-Number-Generators (PRNGs) - Entropium (entropium.h) */
