An Interface and Algorithms for Authenticated Encryption

Metadata

Publisher: IETF
Doc Type: Standard
Pages: 22
Abstract: This document defines algorithms for Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD), and defines a uniform interface and a registry for such algorithms. The interface and registry can be used as an application-independent set of cryptoalgorithm suites. This approach provides advantages in efficiency and security, and promotes the reuse of crypto implementations. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
