Machine translation, like DeepL or Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must follow the LLM translation guideline, revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.
Do not translate text that appears unreliable or low-quality. If possible, verify the text with references provided in the foreign-language article.

Two-Track-MAC is a message authentication code submitted to the NESSIE project in 2000 by Bart Van Rompay (KU Leuven) and Bert den Boer (debis AG).^[1] It is based on a dual-track hashing structure derived from RIPEMD, in which two parallel computation paths are combined to produce the final MAC.^[2]

It uses a dual-track structure derived from RIPEMD, in which two parallel computation paths are combined. This is superficially similar to constructions such as MDC-2, which also employ parallel processing, though the underlying designs differ significantly.^[2]
