A new version of the stream cipher SNOW

Ekdahl, Patrik LU and Johansson, Thomas LU orcid (2003) Selected Areas in Cryptography: 9th Annual International Workshop, SAC 2002 2595. p.47-61
Abstract
In 2000, the stream cipher SNOW was proposed. A few attacks followed, indicating certain weaknesses in the design. In this paper we propose a new version of SNOW, called SNOW 2.0. The new version of the cipher does not only appear to be more secure, but its implementation is also a bit faster in software.
