Thanks for the answer, I will use those params.

Is your platform using Bouncy Castle under the hood or is it using another type 
of lib?

Go with 96 bits for IV and 128 bits for the tag/mac. Also, if you're looking

Hi,

According to the NIST recommendation, 96 bit would be the ideal size of the IV 
vector for AES GCM.    What about the MAC size?  Should it be 96 bits also or 
128?

I ask because in the file GCMTests.cs I noticed that all the tests are made 
with a IV size of 128 bits and a Max Size of 128 bits also.

Any help is welcome. 😊
