DES and triple-DES are two well-known and popular encryp-tion algorithms, but they both have the same drawback: their block sizeis limited to 64 bits. While the cryptographic community is working hardto select and evaluate candidates and finalists for the AES (AdvancedEncryption Standard) contest launched by NIST in 1997, it might be ofinterest to propose a secure and simple double block-length encryptionalgorithm. More than in terms of key length and block size, our Uni-versal Encryption Standard is a new construction that remains totallycompliant with DES and triple-DES specifications as well as with AESrequirements.
