Telekom's MAGENTA algorithm for en-/decryption in the Gigabit/sec range

A comprehensive survey of modern symmetric cryptographic solutions for resource constrained environments

“…The MAGENTA cipher was developed under the initiative to create a chip that is capable of running at high data rates. The paper by Huber and Wolter (1996) presented a high speed implementation of the MAGENTA cipher using 0.6 mm CMOS technology, with 1 Gbps and 60 mm 2 chip area. It is also mentioned that the MAGENTA is suitable for high-speed application such as the ATM networks.…”

“…The MAGENTA cipher (Huber and Wolter, 1996) is also known as the Multifunctional Algorithm for General-purpose Encryption and Network Telecommunication. The MAGENTA cipher was developed under the initiative to create a chip that is capable of running at high data rates.…”

Fast and Efficient Implementation of AES via Instruction Set Extensions

“…In October 2000, NIST chose Rijndael as the AES Advanced Encryption Algorithm. One of the core operations of AES is a Galois Field fixed field constant multiplication, which is also a core operation of other block ciphers, such as Magenta, MISTY1, MISTY2, SHARK, SQUARE, and Twofish [20], [21], [22], [23], [24], [25], [26]. Unfortunately, Galois Field fixed field constant multiplication does not map well to traditional processor instruction sets.…”
