Keyed-Hashing Message Authentication

Jump to user comments

messaging, cryptography (HMAC) A mechanism for message

authentication using cryptographic hash functions. HMAC

can be used with any iterative cryptographic hash function,

e.g., MD5, SHA-1, in combination with a secret shared key.

The cryptographic strength of HMAC depends on the properties

of the underlying hash function.
