NSA Type 1 block cipher algorithm
- this page is a stub
BATON is a secret Type 1 block cipher algorithm, developed around 1995
by the United States
National Security Agency (NSA).
Although it is secret, some general information about its use can be found in
the public PKCS#11 standard [2]. It is known that is has a 320-bit key and
uses a block size of 128-bit in most modes. It also supports a 96-bit
electronic codebook mode (ECB).
Furthermore, 160 bits of the key are
checksum material, whilst up to 192 bits may be used as an initialization
vector (IV), regardless the block size [1]. It is suitable for
classified information.
