"RC6 is an evolutionary improvement of RC5, designed to meet the
|
|
requirements of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). Like RC5,
|
|
RC6 makes essential use of data-dependent rotations. New features
|
|
of RC6 include the use of four working registers instead of two,
|
|
and the inclusion of integer multiplication as an additional primitive
|
|
operation. The use of multiplication greatly increases the diffusion
|
|
achieved per round, allowing for greater security, fewer rounds, and
|
|
increased throughput."
