Scope
This International Standard describes four modes of operation for an n-bit block cipher.
NOTE - Annex A (informative) contains comments on the properties of each mode.
This International Standard establishes four defined modes of oper ation so that in applications of an n-bit block cipher (e.g. protection of data transmission, data storage, authentication) this International Standard will provide a useful reference for, for example, the specification of the mode of operation and the values of parameters (as appropriate).
