Output Feedback Mode (OFB) is an encryption mode, that builds a synchronous stream-cipher from a block-cipher.
Output Feedback Mode (OFB) makes a block-cipher into a stream cipher by generating a keystream using the block-cipher that is XORed with the plaintext to produce the ciphertext. OFB mode feeds back the raw output of the block-cipher as the next input of the block-cipher to create successive keystream blocks.
