MICKEY-128

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

MICKEY-128 is a stream cipher developed by Steve Babbage and Matthew Dodd.

The cipher is a Phase 2 Focus candidate for the eSTREAM project. The cipher is targeted for fast hardware implementations and efficient implementations for embedded systems. Several versions of MICKEY-128 with different key lengths exists. The version selected for Phase 2 has a key length of 128 bits. It is not patented.
