Stream ciphers - Cryptography

The purpose of this report is to highlight security principles in relation to efficient cryptographic algorithms and provide a brief introduction to a few such prominent algorithms. A need for efficient cryptographic algorithms that can handle realtime video data with low latency was voiced by industry partners in conjunction with Task 3.16 of the NORCICS project. The literature on these topics is extensive, so that further in-depth information is easy to find on the Internet.
