5 /// \details Authenticated encryption (AE) schemes combine confidentiality and authenticity
6 /// into a single mode of operation They gained traction in the early 2000's because manually
7 /// combining them was error prone for the typical developer. Around that time, the desire to
8 /// authenticate but not ecrypt additional data (AAD) was also identified. When both features
9 /// are available from a scheme, the system is referred to as an AEAD scheme.
10 /// \details Crypto++ provides four authenticated encryption modes of operation - CCM, EAX, GCM
11 /// and OCB mode. All modes derive from AuthenticatedSymmetricCipherBase() and the
12 /// motivation for the API, like calling AAD a &quot;header&quot;, can be found in Bellare,
