Abstract

In this paper we show how the synchronous stream cipher Edon80 - proposed as a candidate stream cipher in Profile 2 of the eSTREAM project, can be efficiently upgraded to a synchronous stream cipher with authentication. We are achieving that by simple addition of two-bit registers into the e-transformers of Edon80 core, an additional 160-bit shift register and by putting additional communication logic between neighboring e-transformers of the Edon80 pipeline core. This upgrade does not change the produced keystream from Edon80 and we project that in total it will need not more then 1500 gates. A previous version of the paper with the same title that has been presented at the Special Workshop ¡°State of the Art of Stream Ciphers SASC 2007¡±, hosted by ECRYPT at Ruhr University - Bochum, Germany, January 31 - February 1, 2007.
