Incryptography, theIDEA NXT algorithm (previously known asFOX) is ablock cipher designed by Pascal Junod andSerge Vaudenay ofEPFL (Lausanne,Switzerland). It was conceived between 2001 and 2003. The project was originally named FOX and was published in 2003. In May 2005, it was announced by MediaCrypt under the nameIDEA NXT. IDEA NXT is the successor to theInternational Data Encryption Algorithm (IDEA) and also uses theLai–Massey scheme.[2] MediaCrypt AG holdspatents on elements of IDEA[citation needed] and IDEA NXT. The cipher is specified in two configurations: NXT64 (with block of 64 bits, key of 128 bits, 16 rounds) and NXT128 (with block of 128 bits, key of 256 bits, 16 rounds).
