LOKI — A cryptographic primitive for authentication and secrecy applications

Section 6 Block Ciphers

Part of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science book series (LNCS,volume 453)

Abstract

This paper provides an overview of the LOKI encryption primitive which may be used to encrypt and decrypt a 64-bit block of data using a 64-bit key. The LOKI primitive may be used in any mode of operation currently defined for ISO DEA-1, with which it is interface compatible [AAAA83]. Also described are two modes of operation of the LOKI primitive which compute a 64-bit, and 128-bit, Message Authentication Code (or hash value). These modes of operation may be used to provide authentication of a communications session, or of data files.
