Any thought on using POLYVAL instead of GMAC? -- V/R, Uri
From: Sipos, Brian J. <[email protected]> Date: Friday, July 19, 2024 at 11:29 To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Subject: [EXT] [COSE] AES-GMAC in COSE All, I was looking in the COSE algorithms registry [1] for any existing allocations for GMAC uses but don’t see any. My reason for looking was that in some hardware-accelerated environments AES-GCM is faster than HMAC processing, so a GMAC would also benefit from the acceleration. I expect that a COSE use of AES-GMAC would look similar to the use in CMS [2] except that COSE algorithms typically combine options like authentication tag size into a single code point, so an initial thought would be max-length tags like: AES-GMAC 128/128, AES-GMAC 192/128, AES-GMAC 256/128 Would there be WG interest in allocating GMAC algorithms in the near-term time supporting max-length tags?
