Detailed Description

This file provides an API for the CCM authenticated encryption mode for block ciphers.

CCM combines Counter mode encryption with CBC-MAC authentication for 128-bit block ciphers.

Input to CCM includes the following elements:

• Payload - data that is both authenticated and encrypted.
• Associated data (Adata) - data that is authenticated but not encrypted, For example, a header.
• Nonce - A unique value that is assigned to the payload and the associated data.

Definition of CCM: http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/nistpubs/800-38C/SP800-38C_updated-July20_2007.pdf RFC 3610 "Counter with CBC-MAC (CCM)"

Related: RFC 5116 "An Interface and Algorithms for Authenticated Encryption"

Definition of CCM*: IEEE 802.15.4 - IEEE Standard for Local and metropolitan area networks Integer representation is fixed most-significant-octet-first order and the representation of octets is most-significant-bit-first order. This is consistent with RFC 3610.
