CryptMT

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In cryptography, CryptMT is a stream cypher algorithm which internally uses the Mersenne twister. It was developed by Makoto Matsumoto, Hagita Mariko, Takuji Nishimura and Matsuo Saito and is patented. It has been submitted to the eSTREAM project of the eCRYPT network.

In that submission to eSTREAM, the authors also included another cipher named Fubuki, which also uses the Mersenne twister.
