Expand description
Like encrypt
, but for AEAD ciphers such as AES GCM.
Additional Authenticated Data can be provided in the aad
field, and the authentication tag
will be copied into the tag
field.
The size of the tag
buffer indicates the required size of the tag. While some ciphers support
a range of tag sizes, it is recommended to pick the maximum size. For AES GCM, this is 16 bytes,
for example.
