scope:
ISO/IEC 10118 specifies hash-functions and is therefore applicable to the provision of authentication, integrity and non-repudiation services. Hash-functions map strings of bits of variable (but usually upper bounded) length to fixed-length strings of bits, using a specified algorithm. They can be used for: - reducing a message to a short imprint for input to a digital signature mechanism, and - committing the user to a given string of bits without revealing this string.
