The document discusses the stream cipher ISSAC (Indirection, Shift, Accumulate, Add, and Count). ISSAC was designed by Robert Jenkins Jr. in 1996 as an improvement over RC4 by addressing biases and short cycles. It uses a 256-element state array that is initialized with a key then modified using indirection, accumulation, addition, and a counter to generate cryptographically secure pseudorandom numbers. The document covers ISSAC's design, cryptanalysis showing it remains secure, and applications for encryption where fast random number generation is needed.
