### Integrated Encryption Schemes

[**Integrated encryption schemes \(IES\)**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_Encryption_Scheme) are modern public key encryption schemes, which combine symmetric ciphers, asymmetric ciphers and key-derivation algorithms to provide secure **public-key based encryption** \(PKE\). In EIS scheme asymmetric algorithms \(like RSA or ECC\) are used to encrypt or encapsulate a symmetric key, used later by symmetric ciphers \(like AES or ChaCha20\) to encrypt the input message. Some EIS schemes provide also message authentication. Examples of EIS schemes are [**DLIES**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_Encryption_Scheme) \(Discrete Logarithm Integrated Encryption Scheme\) and [**ECIES**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_Encryption_Scheme) \(Elliptic Curve Integrated Encryption Scheme\).
