The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Breaking Symmetric Cryptosystems Using Quantum Period Finding (2016, methodology): “In particular, there is no obvious way to apply our attacks to CCM. Extending GMAC attack to GCM. GCM is one of the most widely used authenticated encryption modes, designed by McGrew and Viega [35].”
DP5: A Private Presence Service (2015, background): “Of course, in practice, all parties partake in both the registration and query protocols, and have multiple friends.”
Recommendation for Block Cipher Modes of Operation: Galois/Counter Mode (GCM) and GMAC (2007, background): “[7] gives a detailed treatment of the security properties of GCM.”
An IoT Endpoint System-on-Chip for Secure and Energy-Efficient Near-Sensor Analytics (2016, methodology): “AES in the Galois Counter Mode [49] (AES-GCM) is one of the most used authenticated encryption schemes today.”
