| Abstract | RIPEMD-160 is a fast cryptographic hash function that is tuned towards software implementations on 32-bit architectures. It has evolved from the 256-bit extension of MD4, which was introduced in 1990 by Ron Rivest [20, 21]. Its main design feature are two different and independent parallel chains, the result of which are combined at the end of every application of the compression function. As suggested by its name, RIPEMD-160 offers a 160-bit result. It is intended to provide a high security level for the next 10 years or more. RIPEMD-128 is a faster variant of RIPEMD-160, which provides a 128-bit result. Together with SHA-1, RIPEMD-160 and RIPEMD-128 have been included in the International Standard ISO/IEC 10118-3, the publication of which is expected for late 1997 [17]. The goal of this article is to motivate the existence of RIPEMD160, to explain the main design features and to provide a concise description of the algorithm. |
