Block Ciphers

This page attempts to provide a non-exhaustive list of block ciphers published at regular crypto venues sorting by the year published. The most recent block ciphers are at the top of the list. Links to the specification of the ciphers are provided accordingly.

Note that the list contains a mix of regular block ciphers, lightweight block ciphers and tweakable block ciphers. The list is expected to be updated from time to time.
