AEAD Modes for ZUC Family Stream Ciphers

Abstract

In order to improve the efficiency of using ZUC primitives, we give two AEAD (Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data) modes for them, ZUC-GXM and ZUC-MUR. They are suitable for ZUC (ZUC-128) and two cases of ZUC-256. The former is a nonce-based AEAD, which is following the GCM framework. The latter is a nonce misuse-resistant one which is based on the framework of SIV variance, providing more robust applications for ZUC family stream ciphers.
