Thequestion"Streamciphers:

questioncouldnot havebeen better, ormorestarkly, put. However,
itwasnotShamir'sintentiontosuggestthatstreamciphersthemselves were
obsolete; rather he was questioning whether stream ciphers of a

a perfectly acceptablestreamcipher. To explore this question the
eSTREAM Project was launched in 2004, part of the EU-sponsored
ECRYPT Framework VI Network of Excellence. The goal of the project
was to encourage academia and industry to consider the "dead stream
cipher" and to explore what could be achieved with a dedicated
design. Now, after several years of hard work, the project has come
to a close and the 16 ciphers in the ?nal phase of eSTREAM are the
subject of this book. The designers of all the ?nalist ciphers are
to be congratulated. Regardless of whether a particular algorithm
appears in the ?nal portfolio, in reaching the third phase of
eSTREAM all the algorithms constitute a signi?cant milestone in the
development of stream ciphers. However, in addition to thanking all
designers, implementers, and crypt- alysts who participated in
eSTREAM, this is a ?tting place to o?er thanks to some speci?c
individuals.
