Re: SHA-3 and GOST-R/Stribok

*** xorcist@sigaint.org <xorcist@sigaint.org> [2016-09-19 23:25]:

Anyone know of some good reference material comparing and contrasting these hash functions?

As Wikipedia says ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streebog ), Streebog uses Merkle-Damgård construction and mathematically is more closed to SHA1/SHA2 and similar hash functions. It can be called rather "classic" construction, but much more effective and simple that previous GOST R 34.11-94 hash function standard. So many things related to those classic SHA1/2-like functions are appliable to GOST R 34.11-2012 too. By the way, it should be called "Streebog"", "Stribog". -- Happy hacking
