CWC mode
This article needs additional citations for verification. (April 2019) |
In cryptography, CWC Mode (Carter–Wegman + CTR mode) is an AEAD block cipher mode of operation that provides both encryption and built-in message integrity, similar to CCM and OCB modes. It combines the use of CTR mode for encryption with an efficient polynomial and is designed by , John Viega and . NIST previously considered[1][failed verification][citation needed] CWC mode for standardization, but opted for the similar GCM mode instead.[citation needed]
