Operation Modes and Their Fast Implementations of NIST New Block Cipher

Block cipher is one of the most widely-used tool in cryptography,and its operation mode features the use of a symmetric-key block-cipher algorithm in providing an infosec service,such as confidentiality or authentication. National Institute of Standards and Technology( NIST) actively works on block-cipher operation modes,and issues a variety of operation modes over the past decade. And several new operation modes are published in recent years,such as the Galois counter mode GCM,the XTS-AES mode for confidentiality on storage devices and the operation methods for key wrapping. This paper discusses these operation modes and their fast implementations.
