NIST Workshop – Hotel and Registration Deadlines for the Accordion Block Cipher Mode Workshop
Kerman, Sara J. (Fed)
NIST Workshop on the Requirements for an Accordion Cipher Mode
June 20-21, 2024
NIST/NCCoE – Rockville, MD
There are only two weeks left to register! Registration for the workshop will close June 13. All attendees must be pre-registered to attend events held at NIST/NCCoE.
NIST plans to develop a new mode of the AES that is a tweakable, variable-input-length-strong pseudorandom permutation (VIL-SPRP) with a reduction proof to the security of the underlying block cipher. In advance of the workshop, NIST has developed a Proposal of Requirements for an Accordion Mode: Discussion Draft for the NIST Accordion Mode Workshop 2024
The draft agenda is available at: https://csrc.nist.gov/Events/2024/accordion-cipher-mode-workshop-2024
