| Title: | Recommendation for Block Cipher Modes of Operation: Galois/Counter Mode (GCM) and GMAC |
| Published: | November 28, 2007 |
| Abstract: | This Recommendation specifies the Galois/Counter Mode (GCM), an algorithm for authenticated encryption with associated data, and its specialization, GMAC, for generating a message authentication code (MAC) on data that is not encrypted. GCM and GMAC are modes of operation for an underlying approved symmetric key block cipher. |
