Expand the Cryptography Appendix for MAC, signatures, key derivation functions #2314

@randomstuff

Description

@randomstuff

The crypto appendix currently provides guidance around suitable algorithms for:

  • ciphers
  • random generation
  • symmetric ciphers
  • key wrapping
  • key exchange and DH groups
  • secure hash functions
  • password hashing

The following things are not covered:

  • MAC
  • digital signatures
  • key derivation functions

Should this appendix be expanded to cover these (and relevant requirements be included as well)?
