Anubis (cipher)
Encyclopedia : A : AN : ANU : Anubis (cipher)
Anubis is a block cipher designed by Vincent Rijmen and Paulo S. L. M. Barreto as an entrant in the NESSIE project. Anubis operates on data blocks of 128 bits, accepting keys of length 32N bits (N = 4, ..., 10). It seems that the cipher is not patented and has been released by the designers for free public use.
It is named after the Egyptian god of entombing and embalming, which the designers interpreted to include encryption. They claim that violators of the cipher will be cursed.
