AEADtilat

AEADtilat is a cryptographic mode of operation that combines authenticated encryption with associated data (AEAD). This means it provides both confidentiality (ensuring data is unreadable to unauthorized parties) and integrity (ensuring data has not been tampered with). AEADtilat is designed to be efficient and secure, making it suitable for various applications where both secrecy and authenticity are required.

The "tilat" component of AEADtilat refers to its specific design principles and implementation details, though these are not widely standardized or publicly documented under a single, universally recognized specification. As an AEAD mode, AEADtilat typically operates by encrypting a plaintext message to produce ciphertext, and simultaneously generates an authentication tag. This tag can be used by the recipient to verify that the ciphertext has not been altered and that it originated from the claimed sender.

Associated data, also known as unencrypted headers or metadata, can be included in AEADtilat. This data is authenticated but not encrypted, allowing for verification of its integrity without revealing its content. This is useful for scenarios where certain information needs to be protected from modification but can be publicly known. The exact algorithms and key lengths supported by AEADtilat would depend on its specific implementation, but common cryptographic primitives like AES are often employed in such modes. Its security relies on the underlying cryptographic primitives and the proper implementation of the AEAD scheme.
