I have come up with (and implemented) a version of triple DES for true
paranoids, which I call dispersed DES. All I do is append four bytes to
the beginning of the output files for each cycle of triple DES. It seems
like this should provide even more security than triple DES, but I am no
expert. Any comments? Please include "dct@newt.cs.byu.edu" in your replies,
as I am unable to maintain access to the mailing list because of volume.
Thanks.
