HCTR2 is a tweakable, length-preserving encryption mode that is intended for use on CPUs with dedicated crypto instructions. HCTR2 has the property that a bitflip in the plaintext changes the entire ciphertext. This property fixes a known weakness with filename encryption: when two filenames in the same directory share a prefix of >= 16 bytes, with AES-CTS-CBC their encrypted filenames share a common substring, leaking information. HCTR2 does not have this problem.
