 Given that the criteria were a
 mix of security and performance, if it didn't make it to
 the final 5 and was the fastest, it must have been dinged on
 security.
 While there's plenty discussion of the 5
 algorithms that made it to the final round, I haven't
 been able to find anything on why the remaining 10,
 including Crypton, the subject of the paper at hand, were
 rejected.

Also, this one:
