A new 128-bit block cipher

The evolvement of technology have resulted in a number of new proposals done on block ciphers such as KAMFEE, KAMKAR, ARIA, BLOWFISH256, DESL, REBC2, DSDP and etc. Even though there have been so much development of the block cipher, the industry still requires another block cipher as long as secu...
