Abstract
(English)
This paper describes an extension of $\XEX$ mode proposed by Rogaway in 2004, which is a method to convert a block cipher, such as AES, into a tweakable block cipher, where encryptions of a tweakable block cipher require an additional public parameter called tweak.
Our extension attaches an optional encryption function to the original $\XEX$ without degradation in efficiency and security. This function has some limitation but is slightly faster than the basic encryption by $\XEX$.
We prove our scheme's security in a general form, where the offset function, a key component of our construction, is not restricted to the one used by $\XEX$.
We also provide various applications of our result.
