Given the open nature of the Internet, there is a need for authentication schemes to address inherent trust issues. We present Tortoise, an experimental nonce-based authenticated encryption scheme modeled on the Synthetic Counter-in-Tweak. This paper demonstrates a generalizable plug-and-play framework for converting block cipher into Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data. As part of this work, we utilized an XOR procedure for constructing a generic tweakable cipher. Finally, we support two modes: nonce-respecting and nonce-misuse-resistant.
