About: Alternating step generator

An Entity of Type: software, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

In cryptography, an alternating step generator (ASG) is a cryptographic pseudorandom number generator used in stream ciphers, based on three linear-feedback shift registers. Its output is a combination of two LFSRs which are stepped (clocked) in an alternating fashion, depending on the output of a third LFSR. The design was published in 1987 and patented in 1989 by C. G. Günther.
