The encryption scheme is semantically secure under a chosen plaintext attack. Recommendation for block cipher modes of operation. Because messages may be of any length, and because encrypting the same plaintext under the same key always produces the same output as described in the ecb section below, several modes of operation have been invented which allow block ciphers to provide confidentiality for messages of arbitrary length. During the encryption process, some modes also produce a tag. These are procedural rules for a generic block cipher.
