This book presents the use of tweakable block ciphers for lightweight authenticated encryption, especially applications targeted toward hardware acceleration where such efficient schemes have demonstrated competitive performance and strong provable security with large margins. The first part of the book describes and analyzes the hardware implementation aspects of state-of-the-art tweakable block cipher-based mode ΘCB3. With this approach, a framework for studying a class of tweakable block cipher-based schemes is developed and two family of authenticated encryption algorithms are designed...
