EME for Go [](https://travis-ci.org/rfjakob/eme) [](https://godoc.org/github.com/rfjakob/eme) 
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
**EME** (ECB-Mix-ECB or, clearer, **Encrypt-Mix-Encrypt**) is a wide-block
|
|
encryption mode developed by Halevi
|
|
and Rogaway in 2003 _[eme]_ (square-bracketed italics like _[this]_ are literature references, detailed in the
|
|
References secion).
|
|
|
|
EME uses multiple invocations of a block cipher to construct a new
|
|
cipher of bigger block size (in multiples of 16 bytes, up to 2048 bytes).
|
|
|
|
Quoting from the original _[eme]_ paper:
|
|
|
|
> We describe a block-cipher mode of operation, EME, that turns an n-bit block cipher into
|
|
> a tweakable enciphering scheme that acts on strings of mn bits, where m ∈ [1..n]. The mode is
|
|
> parallelizable, but as serial-efficient as the non-parallelizable mode CMC [6]. EME can be used
|
|
> to solve the disk-sector encryption problem. The algorithm entails two layers of ECB encryption
|
|
> and a “lightweight mixing” in between. We prove EME secure, in the reduction-based sense of
|
|
> modern cryptography.
|

Figure 2 from the _[eme]_ paper shows an overview of the transformation:

This is an implementation of EME in Go, complete with test vectors from IEEE.

Is it patentend?

|
|
|
|
In 2007, the UC Davis has decided to abandon _[patabandon]_ the patent
|
|
application for EME _[patappl]_.

**EME-32** is EME with the cipher set to AES and the length set to 512.
|
|
That is, EME-32 _[eme-32-pdf]_ is a subset of EME.
|
|
|
|
**EME2**, also known as EME* _[emestar]_, is an extended version of EME
|
|
that has built-in handling for data that is not a multiple of 16 bytes
|
|
long.
|
|
EME2 has been selected for standardization in IEEE P1619.2 _[p1619.2]_.

Note: This is the original EME paper. EME is specified for an arbitrary
|
|
number of block-cipher blocks. EME-32 is a concrete implementation of
|
|
EME with a fixed length of 32 AES blocks.
