Re: [P1619-3] Algorithm Equivalancy
Hi Bob,
it would be good to include AES-XCB and AES-EME.
An important security parameter is the (maximum) number of bytes
processed with the algorithm. This would be especially useful to
know in a storage context. AES can process a lot more data than 3DES
and still provide the same security level - something like 2^32 times
as many bytes. It would be great to have a column that presented
this information.
