Helix Stream Cipher - http://www.macfergus.com/helix/helix.pdf
Document describes the Helix stream cipher, devised by Niels Ferguson, Doug Whiting, Bruce Schneier, John Kelsey, Stefan Lucks, and Tadayoshi Kohno. The cipher produces a MAC for every plaintext it encrypts. Source code is not included in this document, but Qualcomm Australia has implemented Helix in C. |

Hiji Bij Bij - http://eprint.iacr.org/2003/014.ps
Describes a stream cipher devised by Palash Sarkar and the Cryptology Research Group at the India Statistical Institute. Like many new stream ciphers, it has two parts to its state, one part updated linearly and one part updated non-linearly. The linear part is implemented as cellular automata. The cipher can run in a self-synchronizing mode. The C source code is in this postscript document. |

HC-256 Stream Cipher - http://eprint.iacr.org/2004/092.pdf
HC-256 is a stream cipher developed by Hongjun Wu at the Institute for Infocomm Research in Singapore. It uses a very large state data set which it updates and reads from pseudo-randomly. It seems similar in basic design to SN3 and also borrows some ideas from SHA-256. C source code is included in this PDF document. |
