SCTA-1

Since this is my personal blog, I thought I should share a bit about a personal project.  Sherwin and I have just finished what we think is a stable build of our encryption algorithm SCTA-1 (Stream Cipher Test Algorithm 1).  You can read about and download it at our SourceForge.net site.

Don't trust it for your encrypted data just yet though.  We're going to see if we can find any cryptanalysts willing to find weaknesses before we get too excited.

It's definitely been a fun project to work on, though.  Lots of brainstorming, mathematics, and even some physics.  I wouldn't mind doing something like this for a living.
