Most encryption algorithms use the block cipher method, which codes fixed blocks of input. Others use the stream method, which encrypts one bit at a time.

RC2 is a block cipher that encrypts data in blocks of 64 bits. The size of the output of the algorithm is always a multiple of the block size. The RC2 key size can range from 8 to 256 bits. RC4 A ...

What does stream cipher actually mean? Find out inside PCMag's comprehensive tech and computer-related encyclopedia.

Here, we introduce our IP core based on our new stream cipher called VSC (vector stream cipher), which are suitable for implementing high-speed encryption with highest efficiency. INTRODUCTION The ...

Quantum noise stream ciphers utilise the inherent randomness of quantum noise in optical systems to secure data transmission at the physical layer.

Scientists develop a chaos-based stream cipher that can withstand attacks from large-scale quantum computers.
